You can write the relation between distance and time, as follow:

y = kx

where y is the distance, x is the time and k is the constant of proportionality.

k can be obtained with the given information, as follow:

k = 90/30 = 3

Then, the equation of the relationship is:

y = 3x,

for a time of 10 seconds, the distance traveled is:

y = 3(10) = 30

Hence, the answer is:

y = 3x , 30 feet
