The graph to the right shows the relationship of the
amount of time (in seconds) to the distance (in
feet) run by a jaguar.
jaguar's speed: time and distance
7001
600
(10, 580)
500
distance (in feet
400
3001
a. what does the point (5,290) represent in the
context of the situation?
b. what does the point (3,174) represent in the
context of the situation?
c. is the distance run by the jaguar proportional
to the time? explain why or why not.
d. write an equation to represent the distance
run by the jaguar. explain or model your
reasoning.

this is the graph below

i would say b) is your answer

sorry if im wrong

step-by-step explanation:

answer: your answer is a

this is a direct variation proportion. y = kx

y is the total amount due, k is the constant of variation, and x is the number of texts sent.

plug in the 3.20 and the 16 to solve for the "k". this is the constant of proportionality. it is the value that will not change.

3.20 = k(16). solving you get $.20 per text.

the equation would then be y = .20x

unless you made a typo, the answers are both a and c.

step-by-step explanation:

1.5/3 is .5 whereas 3/9 is .3333333 not proportional

22/33 is .66666 and 4/6 is also .66666 proportional

2/4 is .5 whereas 142/213 is .66666 not proportional

14/7 is 2 and 7/3.5 is also 2 proportional

you could've also checked it by doing this simple division:

if the larger fraction divides with the smaller fraction to equal 1, it is proportional. so let me show you what i mean:

when i divide 22/33 by 4/6 i get 1, so we know it is proportional, and it is the same with 14/7 and 7/3.5. now if i divide 3/9 by 1.5/3 i get .66666 so therefore we know it is not proportional.

there are many ways to do this so i wanted to show you some possible ways.
