Answer:
see the explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form or
In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m of the line and the line passes through the origin
Let
x ----> the time in seconds
y ---> the distance in meters
In this problem we have a proportional relationship between the variables x and y
Find the constant of proportionality k
For x=2, y=25 --->
For x=4, y=50 --->
For x=6, y=75 --->
For x=8, y=100 --->
so
The value of k is
In this problem the value of k or slope represent the speed of the train
The linear equation is equal to
