Question
Ahmed is driving at a constant speed of 60 miles per hour. The distance Ahmed drives is a function of the time in hours.
We can represent this situation in different ways like an equation, a graph, or a table. Let’s start with an equation. What do the variables x and y represent in this situation?
y = 60 ⋅ x
?= miles per hour ⋅ ?
A. time B.distance

In the equation \( y = 60 \cdot x \), where \( y \) represents the distance driven and \( x \) represents time in hours, we can identify the variables as follows:
- \( y \) represents **distance** in miles.
- \( x \) represents **time** in hours.
So, the correct answer is:
A. time (for \( x \))
B. distance (for \( y \))
- \( y \) represents **distance** in miles.
- \( x \) represents **time** in hours.
So, the correct answer is:
A. time (for \( x \))
B. distance (for \( y \))
