Check the picture below.

now, to get Rafael's miles, let's simply get the average rate or namely the slope, and to get the slope of any straight line, we simply need two points off of it, let's use those two in the table of the picture below


(\stackrel{x_1}{3}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{105})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{5}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{175}) \\\\\\ \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{\textit{\large rise}} {\stackrel{y_2}{175}-\stackrel{y1}{105}}}{\underset{\textit{\large run}} {\underset{x_2}{5}-\underset{x_1}{3}}} \implies \cfrac{ 70 }{ 2 } \implies \cfrac{35}{1}\qquad \impliedby \cfrac{\textit{35 miles}}{\textit{in 1 hour}}
