On certain days of the week, Elaine runs for an
hour on a treadmill. For each day that she ran in
the last week, the table above shows the average
speed s at which she ran, in miles per hour, and
the number of calories c she burned during the
run. If the relationship between c and s can be
modeled by a linear function, which of the
following functions best models the
relationship?
A) c(s) = 30s + 400
B) c(s) = 60s + 210
C) c(s) = 80s + 40
D) c(s) = 90s - 30
