Answered by GPT-4o mini
In the equation \( y = 0.25 \cdot x \), where \( y \) represents the distance Cyan bikes in miles and \( x \) represents the time in minutes, the value \( 0.25 \) represents Cyan's biking speed in miles per minute.

Thus, 0.25 is the **miles per minute** that Cyan is biking.
