C. Time since the person starts walking is the input.

D. t represents the input.

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance a person walks, d, in kilometers, is a function of time, t, in minutes, since the walk begins.

So, we can write d = f (t)

If the person is moving with constant speed, then the above function will be linear.

Now the true statements are

C. Time since the person starts walking is the input.

D. t represents the input.

All the other statements are false. (Answer)
