Question

A cheetah's speed was timed overa

100-yard distance. The cheetah was
(PLEASE HELP ME)clocked running 70 miles per hour. Which
equation shows the relationship between
the distance, y, and time, x, the cheetah
runs?

Answer 1

y = 70x

Explanation:

Note that d = rt where d is the distance, r is the rate/speed, and t is the time. Since we are given that the variable x is the time, 70mph is the speed, and the variable y is the distance, we can substitute these into d = rt, which we get y = 70x.

I hope this helps! :)
