Question

a giraffe can travel 800 feet in 20 seconds. write a direct variation equation for the distance traveled in any time

Answer 1

The direct variation equation is:

d=kt

d is the distance the giraffe traveled
k is the constant of variation
t is the time

800=k(20)
d=40t
ck
d=40t
800 ft= 40*20 ft
800 ft= 800 ft

Hope this helps bye!
