To complete the equation representing the distance \( d \) that Susan walks in \( t \) days, we need to understand the distance that Martha walks each day based on the graph you mentioned. Since I do not have the graph visible, I will describe the general method to complete the equation.
-
Identify Martha's distance per day: Let’s denote the constant distance that Martha walks each day as \( m \).
-
Susan's distance: Since Susan walks twice as far as Martha each day, her daily distance can be expressed as \( 2m \).
-
Distance over time: The distance Susan walks over \( t \) days would then be the daily distance multiplied by the number of days, which can be expressed as: \[ d = 2m \cdot t \]
So, the equation representing the distance \( d \) that Susan walks in \( t \) days would be: \[ d = 2mt \]
If you know the specific value of \( m \) from the graph, you can substitute it in to complete the equation further. If \( m \) is not provided, you can use \( m \) in the equation as is.
