To determine which student reads faster and by how much, we need to calculate the reading rates for both students.
For Student 2: The table shows the following reading rates:
- 2 hours: 30 pages → 15 pages per hour
- 3 hours: 45 pages → 15 pages per hour
- 4 hours: 60 pages → 15 pages per hour
So, the reading rate for Student 2 is 15 pages per hour.
For Student 1: We need to check the graph (which I cannot see) to find Student 1's reading rates. However, if we assume from the choices provided that Student 1's reading rate is better than 15 pages per hour, let's estimate and compare.
We need to determine the reading rate for Student 1. Based on the problem's responses, we are looking for options like 20 pages per hour (inferred), meaning:
-
If Student 1 reads at 20 pages per hour and Student 2 at 15 pages per hour, then:
Difference = 20 pages/hour - 15 pages/hour = 5 pages/hour.
If the reading rate for Student 1 is at least 20 pages per hour, then:
- Student 1 would be reading faster by 5 pages per hour.
If Student 1 reads faster than 15 pages but less than 25 pages, options become limited.
Since you specifically need comparisons between the choices you provided and my calculations, please provide the exact reading rate for Student 1, or let’s say it's inferred around 30 pages per hour based on the context:
The conclusion will be:
- Student 1 reads faster than Student 2 by 10 or 15 pages per hour depending on what the graph indicates regarding Student 1's rate.
Given clarity on the choices interpreted, confirm your answer if the unseen data indicates appropriately a 15, or 5 as per insights shared.
I don’t have visualization capability here but check the graph output to finalize the correct choice between Student 2 reading faster and Student 1's reading output!
