Mr. Jones jogs the same route each day. The amount of time he jogs is inversely proportional to his jogging rate.
k is the constant of proportionality
We check with each option and identify which option gives us same K value
(a) 4 mph for 2.5 hours and 6 mph for 3.75 hours
so k = 10
so k = 22.5
K values are not same
(b) 3 mph for 2 hours and 4.5 mph for 3 hours
so k = 6
so k = 13.5
K values are not same
(c) 4 mph for 2.5 hours and 5 mph for 2 hours
so k = 10
so k =10
K values are same .
