Suppose a plane flies 48 miles in 12 minutes. the relationship between miles flown, x, and minutes flown, y, by the plane can be represented by the equation y =
1
4
x.

how far will the plane fly in 28 minutes?
a) 112 miles
b) 116 miles
c) 120 miles
d) 124 miles

(A) 112 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The plane flies 48 miles in 12 minutes. First, find out the amount of miles flown in 1 minute, by simplifying the fraction:

(48 miles)/(12 minutes) = (4 miles)/(1 minute)

The plane flies 4 miles every minute.

Now solve for the amount of area that plane covers in 28 minutes. Multiply 28 with 4:

4 x 28 = 112

(A) 112 miles is your answer.
