To determine who recycled paper at a faster rate, we would need specific details from the graphs showing the amount of paper recycled by George and Martin over time. The rate can typically be assessed by analyzing the slope of the line in the graph representing their recycling amounts over the weeks.

  • If George's line has a steeper slope than Martin's, then George recycled paper at a faster rate.
  • If Martin's line has a steeper slope than George’s, then Martin recycled paper at a faster rate.
  • If both lines have the same slope, then they recycled paper at the same rate.

If you can provide the specific details or describe the graphs, I can help you analyze the information! Otherwise, based on the current information, the correct answer remains unclear, which could be option A (There is not enough information to determine who recycled paper at a faster rate).
