Question

Tracey built a small boat and recorded the distance it traveled. The table below shows the distance traveled (f) during the first 4 seconds after starting (p).


Elapsed Time
(seconds) Distance Traveled
(feet)
1 4.2
2 8.4
3 12.6
4 16.8


Which of the following equations represents the relationship between the distance traveled and the elapsed time?
p = 4.2f

f = 4.2p

p = 4.2 + f

f = 4.2 + p

Answer 1

Distance= speed*time

Answer 2

f=4.2p
