Answer:

The equation is [tex]y=\frac{2}{5} x[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

Let [tex]y[/tex] represent the number of laps Jay run, and [tex]x[/tex] the number of minutes it takes him to run those laps.

We know that it it takes Jay 25 minutes to run 10 laps; therefore, the number of laps jay runs per minute is:

[tex]\frac{10\:laps}{25\:minutes} =\frac{2}{5}\:laps/min[/tex]

So, if Jay runs for [tex]x[/tex] minutes, the number of laps [tex]y[/tex] he will run be:

[tex]\boxed{y=\frac{2}{5}x}[/tex]
