C. 540 miles.
Since distance is varying directly with time, we can use the formula: distance = rate x time.
From the graph, we can see that in 5 hours, the distance traveled is 200 miles. So the rate is:
rate = distance ÷ time = 200 miles ÷ 5 hours
rate = 40 miles/hour
Now we can use this rate to find the distance traveled after 12 hours:
distance = rate x time = 40 miles/hour x 12 hours
distance = 480 miles
Therefore, the distance traveled after 12 hours is 480 miles.
The graph represents distance traveled varying directly with time.
A graph shows Time (hours) on the x-axis with labels from 0 to 5, and Distance (miles) on the y-axis with labels from 0 to 200. A line on the graph starts at 0 hours, 0 miles and increases steadily through 5 hours, 200 miles.
What would be the distance traveled after 12 hours?
A. 600 miles
B. 40 miles
C. 540 miles
D. 480 miles
