The position d of bicyclist (measured in kilometres) is a linear function of time t (measured in minutes). At time t= 5 minutes, the position is d= 7 km. If the bicyclist travels 7 km for every 5 minutes, find the position of the bicyclist for time t= 15 minutes.

Respuesta :

Answer:

              21 km    

Step-by-step explanation:

If the bicyclist travels 7 km for every 5 minutes then it is directly proportional

5 min        7 km

15 min          x

[tex]x=\dfrac{15\cdot7}{5}=3\cdot7=21\,km[/tex]
