Determine if the quantities in the data table are in a proportional relationship if they do not have a proportional relationship indicate why? Hours biked 1 miles treated 12. Hours biked 2 miles traveled 26. Hours biked 3 miles travelled 30 hours biked 4 miles traveld 48

1 answer

To determine if the quantities are in a proportional relationship, we can check if the ratio of hours biked to miles traveled remains the same throughout the data table.

Ratio for the first set of data:
1 hour / 12 miles = 1/12

Ratio for the second set of data:
2 hours / 26 miles = 1/13

Ratio for the third set of data:
3 hours / 30 miles = 1/10

Ratio for the fourth set of data:
4 hours / 48 miles = 1/12

Since the ratios are not consistent, the quantities in the data table do not have a proportional relationship.
