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?​

26

Step-by-step 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)

the red lines denote the population of the bacteria after 35 hours. that would be 2,409.24. the y-intercept is the blue line which is 800 because that is the starting point. the equation used to make the graph is 800(1.032)^h, where h is the number of hours.
