1. The problem asks us to determine which statement about the number of pages read by Jay and Lisa over time is true based on the graph.
2. From the graph description, Jay's line steadily increases and is always higher than Lisa's line, meaning Jay reads more pages over time.
3. Lisa's line starts above zero, indicating she has already read some pages before the time measurement starts.
4. Let's analyze each statement:
A. "Before 2 hours, Jay has read more pages than Lisa." Since Jay's line is above Lisa's line at all times, this is true.
B. "At 2 hours, Jay has read 25 pages more than Lisa." The graph does not provide exact numbers to confirm this precise difference.
C. "Before 150 minutes (2.5 hours), Lisa has read more pages than Jay." The graph shows Jay's line is always above Lisa's, so this is false.
D. "After 150 minutes, Lisa has read more pages than Jay." This is false because Jay's line remains above Lisa's.
5. Therefore, the correct statement is A.
Final answer: A Before 2 hours, Jay has read more pages than Lisa.
