The problem states that the distance travelled (d) is directly proportional to the square of time (t^2), therefore we can write this in the form of:

d = k t^2

where k is the constant of proportionality in furlongs / s^2

 

<span>Using the 1st condition where d = 2 furlongs, t = 2 s, we calculate for the value of k:</span>

2 = k (2)^2

k = 2 / 4

k = 0.5 furlongs / s^2

The equation becomes:

d = 0.5 t^2

 

Now solving for d when t = 4:

d = 0.5 (4)^2

d = 0.5 * 16

<span>d = 8 furlongs</span>

<span>
</span>

<span>It traveled 8 furlongs for the first 4.0 seconds.</span>
