Answer:

A, E

Explanation:

You are correct that the appropriate relationship is ...

g = 0.4t . . . . choice A

You are also correct that an equivalent relationship is ...

t = 2.5g . . . . choice D

However, when we say gallons are proportional to seconds, we usually expect that to be written ...

g = kt . . . . for some value of k

__

We note that another equivalent is ...

g = 2/5t . . . . choice E

The appropriate choices are probably A and E. Choice D might be argued to be correct, but you could very well lose that argument to someone who prefers a "g = " form of the relationship.
