Answer:
The number of points scored after 54 minutes is 18 points
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of points scored be P and the number of minutes played be m
Since P is directly proportional to m, then;
P = km
where k is proportionality constant
Initially;
8 = 24k
k = 8/24 = 1/3
Now, number of points P for 54 minutes
That will be;
P = km
P = 1/3 * 54
P = 18 minutes
