Question

Anna does sit-ups to get ready for her first triathlon. When she starts, she does a sit-up every 2 seconds. But, as she gets tired, each sit-up takes longer and longer to do. Is the number of sit-ups Anna does proportional to the time she spends doing them?

Answer 1

Answer:

Yes, it is directly proportional.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Anna does a sit-up at a certain amount of time, then we have two quantities we are comparing: a sit up and the amount of time it takes.

It is said that the tired she gets, the more time she uses. Therefore, as her tiredness increases, the amount of time also increases. This implies that the quantities are proportional, directly proportional.
