Who ran at a faster constant rate and which equation represents the relationship between Paul's distance and his time

A = Paul ran at a slower constant speed than Melinda, y=1x x being time in hours y being the distance in miles Paul ran

B = Paul ran at a slower constant speed than Melinda, y =3x x being time in hours, y being distance in miles Paul ran

C = Paul ran at a faster constant speed than melinda, y =5x where x is the time in hours and y is the distance in miles Paul ran

D = Paul ran at a faster constant speed than melinda, y =7x x being time in hours and y is the distance in miles Paul ran

Given the proportional relationship representing the speed, Paul ran faster. The equation for Paul is, y = 7x (Option D).

What is the Equation of a Proportional Relationship?

Proportional relationship between two variables that has a constant rate or unit rate of m, is given as y = mx.

In a graph, the steeper the slope, the larger the constant rate or unit rate.

The graph for Paul is steeper than that of Melinda. Since Melinda's constant speed is 5, therefore, Paul's constant speed cannot be less than 5. It should be more than 5, i.e. 7.

This means that Paul ran at a faster constant speed than Melinda did.

Paul's equation for distance covered over time can be expressed as, y = 7x. (Option D).
