4. Justine and her family are floating down a river. After 1 hour, they have floated 1.25 miles, after 4 hours
they have floated 5 miles, and after 6 hours they have floated 7.5 miles. Is the relationship between time (in
hours) and distance (in miles) linear? Why or why not? If it is linear, write a function that models the
relationship between the two quantities.
