Every day, Mia walks her dog, Bruno. They walk 2 miles in 25 minutes.

Complete the table.
Minutes 25 50 125
Miles walked 2 6
Graph the data from the table.

1 answer

To complete the table, we can determine the number of miles Mia and Bruno walk based on their walking rate.

We know that:

  • They walk 2 miles in 25 minutes.

We can find the walking rate:

  • Rate = Distance / Time = 2 miles / 25 minutes = 0.08 miles per minute.

Using this rate, we can determine the miles walked in the time intervals provided:

Complete the Table

  1. For 50 minutes: \[ \text{Miles} = 0.08 \text{ miles/minute} \times 50 \text{ minutes} = 4 \text{ miles} \]

  2. For 125 minutes: \[ \text{Miles} = 0.08 \text{ miles/minute} \times 125 \text{ minutes} = 10 \text{ miles} \]

Now, the completed table is as follows:

| Minutes | Miles walked | |---------|------------------------| | 25 | 2 | | 50 | 4 | | 125 | 10 |

Graph the Data

To graph the data, you will plot the points according to the totals:

  • Point 1: (25, 2)
  • Point 2: (50, 4)
  • Point 3: (125, 10)
  1. X-axis: Set the horizontal axis (Minutes) with values such as 0, 25, 50, 75, 100, 125.

  2. Y-axis: Set the vertical axis (Miles walked) with values such as 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10.

  3. Plot the points:

    • For (25, 2), place a point above 25 on the X-axis directly aligned with 2 on the Y-axis.
    • For (50, 4), place a point above 50 on the X-axis directly aligned with 4 on the Y-axis.
    • For (125, 10), place a point above 125 on the X-axis directly aligned with 10 on the Y-axis.
  4. Connect the points with a straight line, as the relationship between minutes walked and miles walked is linear.

This graph represents the distance Mia and Bruno walk based on the time they spend walking.
