The correct representation of the relationship between the speed of a wave (v), frequency of the wave (f), and its wavelength (λ) is v = fλ. This equation is known as the wave equation and it states that the speed of a wave is equal to the product of its frequency and wavelength. Therefore, option D is the correct choice.
