Question

1. Is the graph proportional?

2. How many feet can a sloth travel in 20 minutes?

Answer 1

1. Yes

2. 60

Explanation:

The graph is proportional because it passes an origin point.

The equation of the graph is

`y = 3x \: \: (x \geqslant 0) \: \: (y \geqslant 0)`

We can find the distance when travelling in 20 minutes by substituting x = 20 in the equation.

`y = 3(20) \\ y = 60`

Therefore the distance (ft) is 60.
