Answer:
3 feet in 5s
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the complete question is,
'If the relationship between distance y in feet and time x in seconds is proportional, which rate is represented by y/x=0.6?
a. 3 feet in 5s
b. 3 feet in 9s
c. 10 feet in 6s
d. 18 feet in 3s'
If y = 3 ft, x = 5 sec
[tex]\frac{y}{x}=\frac{3}{5}=0.6[/tex]
If y = 3 ft, x = 9 sec
[tex]\frac{y}{x}=\frac{3}{9}=0.33...[/tex]
If y = 10 ft, x = 6 sec
[tex]\frac{y}{x}=\frac{10}{6}=1.66666...[/tex]
If y = 18 ft, x = 3 sec
[tex]\frac{y}{x}=\frac{18}{3}=6[/tex]
Hence, the required rate would be 3 feet in 5s
