Answer:

A, C, E

Explanation:

The proportional relations on the list are ...

  • feet and inches
  • flour and bread
  • gallons and cost

We often model running distance and time as proportional, but a marathon is a long enough run that speed is rarely constant. It usually decreases over the course, and may increase near the end.

__

A relationship is proportional if there is a constant multiplier that relates the output to the input.

_____

Additional comment

For the relations listed above, the constants are ..

  • the conversion factor between feet and inches
  • the amount of flour in a bread recipe
  • the price of a gallon of gas

For running time and distance, the multiplier is speed. The relation is only proportional if speed is a constant.
