- A person running down a field to score a touchdown: Not enough information (we would need to know the time it took the person to run the distance to determine if distance is proportional to time)
- A dog jogging at a constant speed for 20 minutes: Distance is proportional to time
- Line graph with line that starts at origin but does not remain straight: Not enough information (we would need to know what the graph represents, such as the speed of an object over time, to determine if distance is proportional to time)
- A horse running around a race track: Distance is proportional to time
- A truck passing through 4 cities at a constant speed: Distance is proportional to time
rag each object to show whether distance is proportional to time in the situation represented.
