Question

ethan hikes at the average speed of 2 miles per hour.
the table shows the number of miles, m, ethan passed in h hours. enter numbers to create a proportional relationship.

time in hours (h)distance passed in miles (m)
6
5
612

Explanation:

Step1: Find proportionality constant

Speed = 2 mph, so \( m = 2h \)

Step2: Calculate missing h for m=6

\( h = \frac{m}{2} = \frac{6}{2} = 3 \)

Step3: Calculate missing m for h=5

\( m = 2 \times 5 = 10 \)

Answer:

3 (for the time when distance is 6 miles), 10 (for the distance when time is 5 hours)
