Answer:

  • B. Andy

Step-by-step explanation:

Kelly's mileage

This is proportional relationship, so one pair of coordinates is enough for our calculation, point (20, 50):

  • m = 50/20 = 2.5 g

Andy's mileage

Use one pair of points from the table to calculate (15, 78.75):

  • m = 78.75/15 = 5.25 g

Rick's mileage is given:

  • m = 4.8 g

Comparing, we see Andy's mileage is largest.

Andy will travel farther than the other drivers.
