Answer:
<u>Equation for the relation:</u>
Let the distance covered be 'y' and the time elapsed be 'x'
We are given that y = 90 and x = 30 for a particular moment in time
dividing y by x, we get:
y / x = 90 / 30
y / x = 3
y = 3x
<u>Distance covered in 10 seconds:</u>
Speed of moving walkway = distance travelled / time taken
Speed = 90 / 30
Speed = 3 feet / second
The speed of the walkway is 3 feet per second. Which means that the walkway covers 3 feet in a second
Distance covered in 10 seconds:
from the equation: s = ut, we can find out the distance travelled in 10s
we are given: u = 3 ft/s , t = 10s
Replacing the variables
s = 3 * 10
s = 30 feet
The walkway covers 30 ft in 10 seconds
