Question

Shonda jogs 5 miles per hour. Graph the relationship between the number of hours Shonda jogs and the total number of miles jogged.

Answer 1

I think if you graph this relationship the plot would be a linear relationship. In the x axis would be the time and in the y axis the distance. For the first hours, the point would be at (1, 5). For the next hour, (2,10) and so on. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

Answer 2

Let

x--------> the number of hours Shonda jogs

y---------> the total number of miles jogged

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a direct variation if it can be expressed in the form
`y/x=k` or
`y=kx`

in this problem

the unit rate
`5(miles)/(hour)` represent the slope of the linear equation or the value of the constant of proportionality k

so

the linear equation is

`y=5x`
