To determine the speeds of both cars, we need to analyze the information provided.
For the red car:
-
To find the speed of the red car, we need to look at the distance traveled over a specific time frame from the graph. If the graph indicates the distance traveled after certain hours, you can use the formula for speed:
\[ \text{Speed} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}} \]
Assuming from the graph, the red car traveled a certain distance in a certain amount of time. For example, if the graph shows that the red car traveled 120 miles in 2 hours, the speed would be calculated as follows:
\[ \text{Speed of Red Car} = \frac{120 \text{ miles}}{2 \text{ hours}} = 60 \text{ miles per hour} \]
Please replace the distance and time values with those shown on your graph to find the specific speed for the red car.
For the blue car:
- From the table, we can determine the speed using the distances provided. Let's look at the values in your table. I'm assuming the table looks like this:
| Number of Hours | Miles Traveled | |-----------------|----------------| | 3 | 162 | | 4 | 216 | | 5 | 270 |
Using the first entry (3 hours and 162 miles):
\[ \text{Speed of Blue Car} = \frac{162 \text{ miles}}{3 \text{ hours}} = 54 \text{ miles per hour} \]
For additional hour data in the table:
- For 4 hours (216 miles):
\[ \text{Speed} = \frac{216 \text{ miles}}{4 \text{ hours}} = 54 \text{ miles per hour} \]
- For 5 hours (270 miles):
\[ \text{Speed} = \frac{270 \text{ miles}}{5 \text{ hours}} = 54 \text{ miles per hour} \]
In all cases, the speed of the blue car is consistent at 54 miles per hour.
Final answers:
- The speed of the red car is: [Insert Red Car Speed Here] miles per hour.
- The speed of the blue car is: 54 miles per hour.
Feel free to provide the specific distance and time values from the graph to complete the analysis for the red car.
