the distance a jet travels varies directly as the number of hours it flies. A jet traveled 2875 miles in 5 hours. What is the constant of variation

Respuesta :

Answer:

k = 575

Step-by-step explanation:

let d be distance and h time.

Given d varies directly as h then the equation relating them is

d = kh ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition d = 2875, h = 5, then

2875 = 5k ( divide both sides by 5 )

k = 575
