(there is a chart on the right side of the text, with the vertical axis labeled total distance (miles) and the horizontal axis labeled time (minutes), and a broken - line graph in the coordinate system.)

Explanation:

For the "Answer" section (defining quantitative reasoning):

Quantitative reasoning is the process of using numerical data, measurements, and mathematical relationships to analyze, interpret, and solve problems. It involves understanding how quantities (measurable attributes of objects or phenomena) change in relation to one another, comparing changes in different quantities, and using this analysis to interpret and make sense of real - world situations (like the distance - time graph shown, where we can analyze how distance changes over time). It often includes skills such as data analysis, using mathematical models, and logical deduction with numerical information to draw conclusions about phenomena or solve practical problems.

We know that in the context of quantitative reasoning, the measurable attributes of objects or phenomena are called "quantities". For example, in the distance - time graph, distance and time are quantities. So the word that fits here is "Quantities".

Quantitative reasoning compares changes in one quantity to changes in another quantity. For instance, in the distance - time graph, we compare how distance (one quantity) changes with how time (another quantity) changes. So the word here is "changes".

Answer:

Quantitative reasoning is the ability to analyze, interpret, and solve problems using numerical data, measurable quantities, and mathematical relationships. It involves comparing changes in quantities, understanding how measurable attributes (quantities) of objects or phenomena relate, and using this to interpret real - world scenarios (e.g., analyzing the distance - time graph to understand motion).
