Question

The number of kilometers Tony travels in a canoe, d, varies directly with the amount of time spent in the canoe, t. When Tony canoes for 2.25 h, he travels 9 km. Which equation shows this direct linear variation?
d = 4t
d = 2t
d = 2.25t
d = 4 + t

Answer 1

Answer:

d= 4t

Step-by-step explanation:

to find distance, the equation is speed multiplied by time and in this question we are given the time and distance so we have to divide 9km by 2.25hrs to find the speed: 9÷2.25= 4 so, the equation would be d=4t which means that to find distance we need to multiply 4 by the time.
