Question

The distance a cargo ship travels is proportional to time. In 2 hours, the ship travels 53 miles. The relationship between distance and time can be represented as y = kx, where x is the time, in hours, and y is the distance, in miles. What is the value of k for this ship?​

Answer 1

Answer:26

Explanation:

The reason i got 26:

-we substitute the letters(variables) and have 52=(k)2

but what is k? k is y divided by x (just like y is k times x)
