With respect to the scale factor n, what can you conclude about the ratio of the length of a line segment in an image to its corresponding length in the preimage following a dilation? How is the slope of a line segment in the image affected by this ratio, if at all? Explain.

Three students, javier, sam, and corrine, participated in a fundraiser where people donated a certain amount of money per lap that the student ran. each student also had some initial donations that were collected before the run. the equations that represent each student's total donation, y, based on the number of laps ran, x, is shown below. match each equation with the correct rate of change for that student.
