Question

A horse ran 800 m in 40 seconds 1200 m in 60 seconds in 480 m and 24 seconds is this a proportional relationship if so what is the concert of proportionality what does it would represent write an equation to represent the distance D in meters that the horse runs into T secon oh horse ran 800 m in 40 seconds 1200 m in 60 seconds in 480 m in 24 seconds is this a proportional relationship if so what is the consul proportionally what does it would represent write an equation to represent the distance D in meters that the horse runs into T seconds

Answer 1

Yes this is a proportional relationship.

Equation is;

D=20T

Explanation:

A horse run;

800m in 40 seconds

1200m in 60 seconds

and

480m inn 24 seconds

800m ÷ 40s = 1200m ÷ 60s = 480m ÷ 24s = 20

The equation here is Distance(D) = 20 × Time(T)

D=20T

It implies that the distance of the horse is directly proportional to the time it takes to run.
