Makaylah and Nasiem left the amusement park’s ticket booth at the same time. Each moved at a constant speed toward a roller coaster ride. Makaylah's speed is represented by the blue line, while Nasiem's speed is represented by the red line. Who is traveling faster towards the ride? Explain how you know.

Makaylah is traveling faster. She takes less time to travel the same distance as Nasiem.

OR

Makaylah is traveling faster. If we compare how much distance they traveled after a specific time, we can see that Makaylah travels further.

The equation

F=9/5C+32

 relates temperature measured in degrees Celsius, C to degrees Fahrenheit, F.

Determine whether there is a proportional relationship between C and F. Explain or show your reasoning.

There isn't a proportional relationship between C and F because the equation involves addition. 

OR

(Group uses a table to show why the equation is not proportional)
