Answer:

This is a proportional relationship, the constant of proportionality is 20m/s and it represents that the horse can run 20 meters every second.  

Equation:  d = 20s, where d=distance and s=number of seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find out whether this relationship is proportional, you need to see if the rate at which the horse runs is constant (the same).  If you look at the three sets of data (24, 480), (40, 800) and (60, 1200) where the pair is (seconds, meters), you can see that for any two sets of data the change in meters divided by the change in seconds is consistently 20m/s.  For example:

\frac{1200-800}{60-40}=\frac{400}{20}=20

Since the constant is 20, we know that the horse can run 20 meters every second.  To find the horse's total distance, we need to multiply the rate by the number of seconds that it runs:

d = 20s

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

The line does not represent a direct variation because it does not go through the origin.

Step-by-step explanation:

The two points are on the horizontal line y=3. It does not go through the origin and does not represent a function y = kx for any value of k. The line does not represent direct variation.

ki77a [65]

Answer:

D. 1 square/ 4 meters = 12 square/48 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

You scale down by simplifying the fraction of 12/48. You would divide both 12 and 48 by 12, since it is the highest divisor. And once you divide the two you get 1/4.
