The graph shows the distance cars a and b travel. which statement is true about the unit rates shown in the graph? (a) the unit rate for car b is greater because the slope is greater than the slope for car a (b) the unit rate for car a is greater because the slope is less than the slope for car b (c) the unit rate for car a is greater because the slope is greater than the slope for car b (d) the unit rate for car b is greater because the slope is less than the slope for car a

(a) The unit rate for car B is greater because the slope is greater than the slope for car A.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a graph that represents the distance cars A and B travel. We are asked to choose the correct option about our given graphs.

Since slope represents the change in y-value with respect to change in per unit x value, so slope is also unit rate of the graph.

Let us find the slope of car A using points (8,5) and (0,0).

Let us find the slope of car B using points (5,8) and (0,0).

We can see that slope of car B is greater than slope of car A, therefore, option A is the correct choice.

x = 2

step-by-step explanation:

if sr parallel to ba then the sides bc and ac are in proportion, that is

= ← substitute values

= ( cross- multiply )

27x = 6(4x + 1)

27x = 24x + 6 ( subtract 24x from both sides )

3x = 6 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 2
