The simple interest (I) on an investment is directly proportional
to the amount of the investment (P). By investing $5000 in a
municipal bond, you obtained an interest payment of $187.50
after one year. Find a mathematical model that gives the
interest (I) for this municipal bond after one year in terms of the
amount invested (P).

The distance a spring is stretched (or compressed) varies
directly as the force on the spring. A force of 220 newtons

The stopping distance d of an automobile is directly proportional
to the square of its speed s. A car required 75 feet to stop
when its speed was 30 mph. Estimate the stopping distance
if the brakes are applied when the car is traveling at 50 mph.
