The distance (d) in meters that an ant can travel varies directly with the amount of time (t) in hours it spends walking. Assume that an ant’s constant of proportionality is 18.

Write an equation to represent the proportional relationship between d and t using the information given.

if this one stumps you, you need to review the topic.

d = 18t
Yeah I understand that I need to review but then it comes to this

If an ant walks for 10 minutes, how far will it travel?
_______ meters
If an ant traveled 22.5 meters, how long did it walk?
_______hours
d = 18t
#1. replace t with 10
#2. replace d with 22.5 and solve for t
1. d/t = 18 m/h. = proportional relationship.
d/(10/60) = 18,
d = 3 m.

2. d/t = 18.
22.5/t = 18,
t = ___ hours.
If you turn the t into 10 the answer is 2.25.
