In which situation is the distance traveled proportional to time?
A car moving in stop-and-go traffic
A baseball hit to center field
A person biking on a trail at 12 miles per hour for 20 minutes
A race car slowing down after crossing the finish line
The correct answer is: A person biking on a trail at 12 miles per hour for 20 minutes.
Explanation: In this scenario, the distance traveled is directly proportional to time because the person is maintaining a constant speed of 12 miles per hour. This means that for every hour they bike, they will cover a consistent distance. In contrast, the other options involve varying speeds or stops, which do not allow for a direct proportionality between distance and time.
