Blake's position, x as a function of time, t, is x = 5t

What is the position of Blake with respect to time?

The position of Blake is the distance of Blake from the reference point of Denise.

The total distance from Blake to Denise = 20 + 30 = 50 m

Time taken by Blake to meet up with Denise = 10 seconds

Assuming that he runs at constant speed;

speed = 50/10

speed = 5 m/s

Distance = speed * time

Let  Blake's position be x

Let time be t

Blake's position as a function of time, will be x = 5t.

In conclusion, distance or position is the product of velocity and time.
