A) s=kt5s = k t ^ { 5 }s=kt5
B) s=kt5s = \frac { k } { t ^ { 5 } }s=t5k
C) s=kts = \frac { k } { t }s=tk
D) s=kts = k ts=kt
E) s=5kts = 5 k ts=5kt

Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
The word "directly proportional" means that as one variable increases, the other variable also increases. The phrase "ffth power of t" means that t is being raised to the 5th power. Therefore, the equation should be in the form s = k times t to the power of 5. Only choice A matches this form.
