Respuesta :

Let c be the number of calories burned

and let t be the time taken to burn the calories.

At 1 minute, 20 calories are burned

Mathematically, we express that as;

[tex]\begin{gathered} c=\text{ k}\times t \\ \text{Where k is constant of proportionality;} \\ 20=k\times1 \\ k=20 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Thus, the function that represents the situation is;

[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{substitute the value of k in the equation above} \\ c=20t \end{gathered}[/tex]

ANSWER: The linear function that represents the situation is c=20t
