<h2><u>Problem Solving</u>:-</h2>
2. The table below shows that the distance d varies directly as the time t. Find the constant of variation and the equation which describes the relation.
<h2><u>Solution</u>:-</h2>
Since the distance d varies directly as the time t, then d = kt.
Using one of the pairs of values, (2, 20), from the table, substitute the values of d and t in d = kt and solve for k.




<h2><u>Answer</u>:-</h2>
- Therefore, the constant of variation is 10.
