10 blocks = 6 min
30 blocks = 18 min
You can answer this because you know that 10 x 3 is 30, so if if the number of blocks tripled then the amount of time should triple as well because he's running at the same rate.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
From the law of variation,
y <> 1/x, where <> is the constant of proportionality. Therefore
y = k/x where k is a constant
3 = k/5 and k = 15
To find x when y = 2.5(5/2)
Go back to the second equation
y = k/x
5/2 = 15/x
When you cross multiply
5x = 30.
Divide through by 5,
x = 6.
Less. It's just multiplication. South has 750/1 and multiply that times 13/15 to figure out norths kids. I you do 750*13/15 you get 650.
