To find the rate at which the bus is traveling, we need to find the speed which is the rate of distance change with respect to time.

Distance traveled from Houston to Dallas is 240 miles.
Time taken to travel from Houston to Dallas is 4 hours.

So, speed = distance / time
speed = 240 miles / 4 hours
speed = 60 mph

Therefore, the bus is traveling at a rate of 60 mph.

So, the correct response is:

60 mph

To determine the points on the linear graph indicating a rate of change of 80 km per hour, we need to look for two points where the change in distance divided by the change in time gives us a rate of 80 km per hour.

Let's calculate the rate of change for each pair of points:

For (4,400) and (6,480):
Rate of change = (480 - 400) / (6 - 4) = 80 / 2 = 40 km per hour

For (5,400) and (6,560):
Rate of change = (560 - 400) / (6 - 5) = 160 / 1 = 160 km per hour

For (4,320) and (6,480):
Rate of change = (480 - 320) / (6 - 4) = 160 / 2 = 80 km per hour

For (4,480) and (6,600):
Rate of change = (600 - 480) / (6 - 4) = 120 / 2 = 60 km per hour

The pair of points (4,320) and (6,480) give a rate of change of 80 km per hour.

Therefore, the answer is:
(4,320) and (6,480)

By using the two points (10,70) and (25,100) that the line passes through:

First, find the slope:
slope (m) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
slope (m) = (100 - 70) / (25 - 10) = 30 / 15 = 2

Then, use the slope to find the y-intercept (b) by substituting one of the points:

y = mx + b
100 = 2(25) + b
100 = 50 + b
b = 50

Therefore, the equation of the linear function shown on the graph is: y = 2x + 50.

So, the correct response is:
y = 2x + 50

To compare the rate of change between Linear Function 1 and Linear Function 2, we need to find the slope of each function.

Linear Function 1 with points (1,9) and (2,12):
Rate of change = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) = (12 - 9) / (2 - 1) = 3 / 1 = 3

Linear Function 2 with points (0,2) and (5,42):
Rate of change = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) = (42 - 2) / (5 - 0) = 40 / 5 = 8

Therefore, Linear Function 2 has the greater rate of change with a rate of change equal to 8, while Linear Function 1 has a rate of change equal to 3.

So, the correct response is:
Linear Function 2 has the greater rate of change, with a rate of change equal to 8 while Linear Function 1 has a rate of change equal to 3.

The relationship described is that the water in the tub is drained out at a constant rate. This means that the amount of water in the tub reduces at a constant pace, making the relationship linear.

Therefore, the sketch of the graph that shows the relationship between the number of minutes since the tub started draining and the number of gallons of water in the tub should be a straight line.

The correct response is:
A coordinate plane shows the x-axis representing Number of Minutes, ranging from 0 to 7 in increments of 1. The y-axis represents the Number of Gallons of Water in Tub, ranging from 0 to 50 in increments of 5. A straight line connects the following two plotted points: (5, 0) and (0, 40).
