The equation that represents the relationship between the number of hours she rides, x, and the distance she covers, y, is

Using the equation, the distance she would cover if she rode for 1.5 hours would be miles.

b. y = 4x - 2

step-by-step explanation:

to find a parallel equation to an equation, make sure both equations have the same slope but different y-intercepts.

y = 4x + 1

4 = slope

1 = y-intercept

y = 4x - 2

4 = slope

-2 = y-intercept

they both have the same slope but different y-intercepts, so, b. is the correct answer.

and to check your work, you can graph both equations. : )
