Answer:

y = 45 x

Explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:

  • Elk speed =45 miles per hour.
  • Distance = y
  • Time (hours) =x

So, if for every hour the elk runs 45 miles (45 x), The equation that shows the relationship between the variables is:

y = 45 x

if we replace the variable x for 1 (hour):

y = 45(1)

y (distance ) = 45 miles

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
