Guillermo Butler · Answer 1

Rate in relationship A = (6 - 3) / (8 - 4) = 3/4 = 0.75

For Table A: Rate = (3 - 1.2) / (5 - 2) = 1.8/3 = 0.6

For table B: Rate = (3.5 - 1.4) / (5 - 2) = 2.1/3 = 0.7

For table C: Rate = (4 - 1.6) / (5 - 2) = 2.4/3 = 0.8

For table D: Rate = (2 - 1.5) / (4 - 3) = 0.5/1 = 0.5

Therefore, the correct answer is option C.
