Question: 4. Model with Mathematics. The distance Dan jogged over time is shown in the graph. Pattie’s constant jogging speed is represented in the table. Who has a faster jogging speed? How much more distance will that jogger have traveled with a total of 22 hours jogging?

7 42
10 60
A. Use the table to find Pattie’s jogging speed $k$. Complete the table.
$k = 60x$
B. Write an equation for the distance in miles $d$ that Pattie jogs in $t$ hours. Graph the equation on the grid with Dan’s graph.
$K=60x$
C. Solve the problem and show your work.
Graph shape: top-left, a line graph on a coordinate grid with time (h) on the horizontal axis and distance (mi) on the vertical axis, showing an increasing straight line through points including $(10, 90)$.
1. **State the problem:**
We are given Dan's jogging data from a graph point $(10, 90)$, meaning Dan jogged 90 miles in 10 hours.
Pattie's jogging distances at various times are given in a table, and we need to find her jogging speed $k$, write her distance equation, compare speeds, and find who jogs farther in 22 hours.
2. **Find Pattie's jogging speed $k$ using the table:**
From the table, at $t=10$ hours, distance $d=60$ miles.
Speed $k$ is distance divided by time:
$$k = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{60}{10} = 6 \text{ miles per hour}$$
3. **Complete the table for Pattie:**
Using $k=6$, calculate distances:
- At $t=2$: $d=6 \times 2=12$
- At $t=3$: $d=6 \times 3=18$
- At $t=5$: $d=6 \times 5=30$
- At $t=7$: $d=6 \times 7=42$
- At $t=10$: $d=6 \times 10=60$
4. **Write Pattie's distance equation:**
Distance $d$ in miles after $t$ hours is:
$$d = 6t$$
5. **Find Dan's jogging speed:**
From Dan's point $(10, 90)$:
$$\text{Speed} = \frac{90}{10} = 9 \text{ miles per hour}$$
6. **Compare speeds:**
Dan jogs at 9 mph, Pattie at 6 mph.
Dan is faster.
7. **Calculate distances after 22 hours:**
- Dan's distance:
$$d_D = 9 \times 22 = 198 \text{ miles}$$
- Pattie's distance:
$$d_P = 6 \times 22 = 132 \text{ miles}$$
8. **Find how much more distance the faster jogger traveled:**
$$198 - 132 = 66 \text{ miles}$$
**Final answer:** Dan jogs faster and will have traveled 66 miles more than Pattie after 22 hours.
