On the graph, 5 hours is paired with 300 miles.

On the equation, 5 hours goes to 250 miles.

directrix · Answer

I think this is the answer: A) Scenario 1 because the slope is 60. 

because the slope of the graph is (300-0)/(5-0) = 60

The slope of the line in the B part is 50.

The tricky thing is that the graph looks like the graph of the function y = 50x.
