Corine and Shonda are reading the same book. The rate at which Corine is reading the book can be represented by the equation y=32x, where x is the time in hours and y is the number of chapters read.

Shonda's rate is represented by this graph.

A graph with the X-axis labeled Time in Hours and the Y-axis labeled Chapters Read. A line begins at the origin and passes through (1, 2), (2, 4), (3, 6), and continues on.
