A. A bee flies at a rate of 6m per second. Suppose the bee's rate is constant, we can predict the distance
It has traveled given the amount of time it has been flying.
The table below shows the distance (in meters) that the bee travels for each given time (in seconds).

Questions:
1. How far does the bee traveled after 15 seconds? Write a mathematical statement that will relate the
two quantities (time and distance) involved.
2. How far does the bee traveled after 2 minutes?
2. How much time will it take the bee to fly a distance of 132 meters?
3. Describe the distance if the rate of speed of the bee was tripled.
4. Draw the graph of the relation, then describe its trend.​
