The constant of proportionality is 25 and the distance at 10 seconds is 250 m.

To find the constant of proportionality, find the slope of the graph.

  • m = Δy/Δx
  • m = 50 - 25 / 2 - 1
  • m = 25

Now, input in slope intercept form of equation to find distance at 10 seconds.

  • y = mx
  • y = 25(10)
  • y = 250 m
