The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will first form the linear equation based on the given information and then answer the two parts of the question. ### Step 1: Form the Linear Equation Given: - Speed = 60 km/hr - Distance = y km - Time = x hours From the formula for speed: \[ \text{Speed} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}} \implies 60 = \frac{y}{x} \] Rearranging this gives us: \[ y = 60x \] ### Step 2: Draw the Graph To draw the graph of the equation \(y = 60x\): - Choose values for \(x\) (time in hours) and calculate corresponding \(y\) (distance in km). - For example: - If \(x = 0\), then \(y = 60 \times 0 = 0\) (point (0,0)) - If \(x = 1\), then \(y = 60 \times 1 = 60\) (point (1,60)) - If \(x = 2\), then \(y = 60 \times 2 = 120\) (point (2,120)) Plot these points on a graph and draw a straight line through them. ### Step 3: Find Distance Travelled in 90 Minutes To find the distance travelled in 90 minutes: 1. Convert 90 minutes to hours: \[ 90 \text{ minutes} = \frac{90}{60} \text{ hours} = 1.5 \text{ hours} \] 2. Substitute \(x = 1.5\) into the equation \(y = 60x\): \[ y = 60 \times 1.5 = 90 \text{ km} \] ### Step 4: Find Time Taken to Cover a Distance of 150 km To find the time taken to cover a distance of 150 km: 1. Use the equation \(y = 60x\) and set \(y = 150\): \[ 150 = 60x \] 2. Solve for \(x\): \[ x = \frac{150}{60} = 2.5 \text{ hours} \] ### Final Answers: (i) Distance travelled in 90 minutes = **90 km** (ii) Time taken to cover a distance of 150 km = **2.5 hours**
