complete the table.

seconds	feet biked
6	90

|9|
|12|
graph the data from the table.

Explanation:

Step1: Find constant speed

$\text{Speed} = \frac{45}{15} = 15$ feet/second

Step2: Calculate 9-second distance

$\text{Distance} = 15 \times 9 = 135$ feet

Step3: Calculate 12-second distance

$\text{Distance} = 15 \times 12 = 180$ feet

Step4: Graph setup (summary)

Plot points (3,45), (6,90), (9,135), (12,180) on a grid with x-axis as seconds and y-axis as feet biked, then draw a straight line through them.

Answer:

Completed table values:

• 9 seconds: 135 feet
• 12 seconds: 180 feet

Graph instructions: Plot the points (3, 45), (6, 90), (9, 135), (12, 180) on the provided grid, with the x-axis representing seconds and the y-axis representing feet biked, then connect the points with a straight line.
