Answer:

The points (0, 0) and (1, 20) can be used to create the line that represents the situation.

If t is the x-coordinate and r is the y-coordinate, then any point that satisfies the equation r = 20t for t > 0 can be used to graph the line. So, any two points that satisfy the equation, such as (0, 0), (1, 20), (2, 40), (3, 60), (4, 80), (5, 100), and so on, can be used to create the line that represents the situation. The line is the same in each case.
