Answer:
Part a) The graph in the attached figure
Part b) The units rate of change is 9
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
A relationship between two variables, t, and d, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form or
step 1
Find the constant of proportionality k
For
substitute
the linear equation is equal to
using a graphing tool
see the attached figure
step 2
Find the unit rate
we know that
In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the unit rate of change or slope m of the line, because the line passes through the origin
so
The units rate of change is 9
That means------> A change of 1 unit in t correspond to a change of 9 units in d
