Time (minutes) → run
Distance (meters) → rise
Rise = 8 m
Run = 4 min

Map the journey on a graph.
A proportional relationship starts at the origin
(0,0)
— zero time, zero distance.
The steepness of the line is the
slope
.
Slope is the same as
unit rate
.
Find it with
rise
(vertical) divided by
run
(horizontal).
