Question

Based on the table, determine whether each statement is true or false.
True
False
Amanda's initial distance from her school is 1.25 miles.
Amanda's distance increases by 1.25 miles each hour.
Amanda's distance from school after 4 hours is 9.75 miles.

Answer 1

To determine whether each statement is true or false, we will need to check the values based on the information provided.

1. **Amanda's initial distance from her school is 1.25 miles.**
**True**
(Assuming the initial distance provided in the table is 1.25 miles.)

2. **Amanda's distance increases by 1.25 miles each hour.**
**True**
(Assuming the table shows a constant increase of 1.25 miles per hour.)

3. **Amanda's distance from school after 4 hours is 9.75 miles.**
To verify this, we calculate the distance after 4 hours:
- Initial distance = 1.25 miles
- Distance increase in 4 hours = 1.25 miles/hour × 4 hours = 5 miles
- Total distance after 4 hours = Initial distance + Increase = 1.25 miles + 5 miles = 6.25 miles

Therefore, **False**
(The total distance after 4 hours is 6.25 miles, not 9.75 miles.)

In summary:
1. True
2. True
3. False
