9. Five motorboats are being tested to see which reaches the highest velocity in the same amount of time. After graphing the acceleration versus force for each motorboat, the graph is a sloped line with a y-intercept of zero.

Which statement is correct about these motorboats? (1 point)

The statement about these motorboats is that the acceleration is directly proportional to the force applied to each boat.

The correct statement about these motorboats is that the acceleration is directly proportional to the force applied.
