Question

Write an Equation Based on your recorded values, write an equation that represents the relationship between the time you spent doing the activity and the amount of the activity you completed. Make sure to define your variables. My numbers are every 1 minute I do 35 jumping jacks.

a. Activity=35t
b. Activity=35+t
c.Activity=35/t
d. Activity=35t^2

Answer 1

The correct equation representing the relationship between time and the number of jumping jacks completed is Activity = 35t, where 'Activity' is the total number of jumping jacks, and 't' is the time in minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation that represents the relationship between the time spent doing an activity and the amount of activity completed, where every 1 minute corresponds to 35 jumping jacks, is a linear relationship. In mathematical terms, the Activity (the total number of jumping jacks) is equal to 35 times the time (t, in minutes). This means that the equation is directly proportional and can be expressed as:

Activity = 35t

Thus, the correct option from the given choices is:

a. Activity = 35t

Here, 'Activity' represents the total number of jumping jacks and 't' represents the time in minutes. This is an example of a linear equation where the coefficient 35 is the rate at which the jumping jacks are completed, and there is no additional term or exponent affecting the time variable.
