Question
Type the correct answer in each box. Spell all words correctly, and use numerals instead of words for numbers. Use decimal numbers instead of fractions.

The equation d = 3t gives the distance, d, in meters that Liam swims with respect to time, t, in seconds.

The table gives the different distances in meters that Edgar swam with respect to time in seconds.

Time (seconds) Distance (meters)
20 64
40 128
60 192
 

Assume that Liam and Edgar both swim at a constant rate. On a graph of these relationships, the slope of the line representing the greater unit rate in terms of distance traveled per unit of time would be .

So, swims at a faster rate than
