the answer is slope of senario 1;

OpenStudy (anonymous):

when you calculate the slope of the senario 2 is 50; because y =50x then slope is 50; in the second senario the slope you calculate depend in 2 points I used the 2 points

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(0,0) and (1,60); slope equal to (60-0)/(1-0) = 60;

OpenStudy (anonymous):

just to mention that the rate of change or the slope ; descripe the speed of the car !!!; why ? you have miles as function of time ; time * speed of car = miles

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so a

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the question is ask which car have speed greater

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yea
