The table that shows the amount of strawberry picked by Joslyn is a linear function
Rebecca's rate is greater than Joslyn's rate
How to determine the faster rate
From the table, we have the following values
(x,y) = (0,0) and (3,6)
The rate is then calculated as:
[tex]m = \frac{y_2 -y_1}{x_2 -x_1}[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]m = \frac{6 - 0}{3 - 0}[/tex]
Evaluate
[tex]m = 2[/tex]
This means that:
Joslyn's rate is 2 cups per minute
From the question, we have:
Rebecca's rate is 2.5 cups per minute
2.5 is greater than 2
This means that:
Rebecca's rate is greater than Joslyn's rate
