An albatross is a large bird that can fly 600 kilometers in 15 hours at a constant speed. Using LaTeX: dd for distance in kilometers and LaTeX: tt for number of hours, an equation that represents this situation is LaTeX: d=40td = 40 t . What are two constants of proportionality for the relationship between distance in kilometers and number of hours?

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question we are given an equation that represents the given situation as d = 40t where;

d is the distance in km

t is the time in seconds.

The given function is a direct proportionality. For example if p is directly proportional to q, this is expressed as p ∝ q where ∝ is the proportionality sign. In order to remove the sign we will introduce a constant say "k". The equation will become;

p = kq (p and q are the variables)

A direct proportionality means that as a variable is increasing, the other is increasing and vice versa. Comparing p = kq with d = 40t, we can see that k is equal to 40 and d is directly proportional to t

Hence the constants of proportionality for the relationship between distance in kilometers and number of hours is 40 on comparing.

well my understanding of this question is they want you to use the y=14.1x -2.3 and put the coordinates they gave you onto the line segment of   y=14.1x -2.3
