A person standing on a moving walkway travels 45 feet in 15 seconds. What
equation represents this relationship? How many feet will the person travel in
10 seconds?
O A. y = 5x, 50 feet
O B. y = 1/5x; 2 feet
O c. y = 3x, 3 feet
O D. y = 3x,30 feet
If it takes him 15 seconds to go 45 feet we can find how much distance he covers in 1 second by dividing the amount of distance he traveled by the time it took. So 45 divided by 15 which is 3. Now that we know how much he travels in 1 second just multiply it by 10 to find the distance he covers in 10 seconds.You should get 30 which is option D
