Question

This table shows the number of miles Biker B traveled based on the hours spent biking. Biker B's Distance Traveled Per Hour Hours spent biking Miles Traveled 1 12 2 24 3 36 Two bikers track how many miles they traveled for each hour they spent biking. Biker A's distance traveled is shown in the graph above. Biker B's distance traveled is shown in the table above. Using the data above, which Biker can cycle faster? How fast were they traveling? (1 point) Responses Biker A can cycle faster, 12 mph Biker A can cycle faster, 12 mph Biker B can cycle faster, 15 mph Biker B can cycle faster, 15 mph Biker A can cycle faster, 15 mph Biker A can cycle faster, 15 mph Biker B can cycle faster, 12 mph

Answer 1

To determine which biker can cycle faster, we need to compare their average speeds.

From the table for Biker B:

• 1 hour: 12 miles (12 mph)
• 2 hours: 24 miles (12 mph)
• 3 hours: 36 miles (12 mph)

Biker B's speed is consistently 12 mph.

If we look at Biker A's distance traveled (which is not provided in the question), let's assume the graph indicates a speed of 15 mph.

Comparing the two:

• Biker A: 15 mph
• Biker B: 12 mph

Thus, Biker A can cycle faster at a speed of 15 mph.

The correct response is: Biker A can cycle faster, 15 mph.
