Answer:

Part a. The graph does not model a proportional relationship.

Part b. The values in table model a proportional relation.

3.5 minutes per mile.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a.

The graph shown in the question representing Janet's data is not a straight line although it passes through the origin.

That is why the rate of change of distance with time is not constant.

Therefore, the graph does not model a proportional relationship.

Part b.

If we plot the data in the table using distance in miles along the y-axis and time in minutes along the x-axis, then we will get a straight line passing through the origin.

So, the values in the table model a proportional relation.

Now, Tarik's unit rate in minutes per miles will be [tex]\frac{7-0}{2-0} =3.5[/tex] minutes per mile. (Answer)
