Question

Kyla spends 60 Minutes of each day exercising. Let d be the number of days that Kyla exercises, and let m represent the total numbers of exercise and given time frame. Show the relationship between the number of days that Kyla exercise in the total minutes that she exercises. What is the Independent variable, Dependent variable and the Equation?

Answer 1

Answer: There is linear relationship between the number of days that Kyla exercise in the total minutes that she exercises.

The independent variable is 'd' and m is the dependent variable which depends on the number of days she exercise.

The linear equation for the situation is given by

`m=60d`

Explanation:

Let d be the number of days that Kyla exercises, and let m represent the total numbers of minutes she exercise.

Kyla spends 60 Minutes of each day exercising which is constant .

Then the total numbers of minutes she exercise(m) in d days is given by

`m=60d` which is the linear equation.

The relationship between the number of days that Kyla exercise in the total minutes that she exercises is linear, where d is the independent variable, and m is the dependent variable which depends on the number of days she exercise.

[ad d increases m increases by rate of 60 minutes per day]

The linear equation for the situation is given by

`m=60d`
