Answer:

Train A's unit rate is 70 km per hour.

Train B's unit rate is 75 km per hour.

Train B is faster.

Step-by-step explanation:

Train A:

Distance traveled by train A is given as, [tex]d=70t[/tex]

Where, [tex]t[/tex] is time in hours and [tex]d[/tex] is distance in kilometers.

Unit rate for train A is the distance traveled by it in 1 hour.

For t hours, distance traveled by train A = [tex]70t[/tex]

For, 1 hour, distance traveled by train A = [tex]\frac{70t}{t}=70[/tex] km per hour.

Therefore, unit rate for train A is 70 km/h.

Train B:

From the table,

Distance traveled in 2 hours = 150 km

∴ Distance traveled in 1 hour = [tex]\frac{150}{2}=75[/tex] km per hour.

Therefore, unit rate for train B is 75 km/h.

Speed is distance traveled per unit time.

Therefore, unit rate is nothing but speed of train.

As unit rate of train B is greater than that of train A, speed of train B is greater and thus faster.
