I will try to help
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Okay thanks
OpenStudy (solomonzelman):
the rate you are looking for is distance per hour. in other words, y/x.
OpenStudy (solomonzelman):
tell me, what can you say about the relation so far.
Do you notice that as x (number of hours) increases by 2, the y (the distance) increases by some number?
what is this number that y is increasing by?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
116

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):
yes.
OpenStudy (solomonzelman):
So if distance (the y) goes up by 116 as x (the number of hours) goes up by 2,
then how much does the distance (the y) go up, as x (the number of hours) goes up (only) by 1?
OpenStudy (solomonzelman):
if unclear, ask...
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yh im unclear
OpenStudy (solomonzelman):
okay, so you have basically,
2y=116x

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):
so only one y, is?
OpenStudy (solomonzelman):
divide both sides by 2, you get 58.
OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):
yes,.
OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

it is 1/58
OpenStudy (solomonzelman):
I said it incorrectly. the distance is y, and time is x. (based on the table)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
okay
OpenStudy (solomonzelman):
so it is 2x=116y ---> 1/58 x = y
OpenStudy (solomonzelman):
which option would you pick?
