I went to a store to buy pencils.
The pencils cost 25 cents each.

1 pencil costs 25 cents.
2 pencils cost 50 cents.
3 pencils cost 75 cents.
10 pencils cost 250 cents ($2.50)

The relationship between the price of pencils and the number of pencils is linear.

Answer with explanation:

Let d denote the distance covered(in km) over the time t(in hours) with a speed of 10 km/h.

This means that the with the increasing time the distance covered will also increase.

Hence, the two variables i.e. distance and time are directly proportional to each other and also the equation which describes this relationship is given by:

d=10t

Also, the relationship is Linear.

Since, the equation is linear which relates the two variable.
