Answer:

The smallest possible number this could have been = 455500

Step-by-step explanation:

456000 has been rounded to the nearest thousand.

If the value is more than 456500 the value rounded to the nearest thousand is 457000.

If the value is less than 455500 the value rounded to the nearest thousand is 455000.

In between 455500 and 456500 the value rounded to the nearest thousand is 456000.

So, The smallest possible number this could have been = 455500

Suppose that w and t vary inversely and that t = 5/12

Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

Option B. t=5/3w ;1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that $w$ varies Inversely with $t$ thus generally speaking $w$ ∝ $\frac{1}{t}$ since they are inverted, <u>otherwise</u> if they were proportionally varied then $w$ ∝ $t$ . This means that there is a constant value ( $a$ ) for which $w$ is inversely proportional to $t$ and can be mathematically expressed as:

$w=\frac{a}{t}$ Eqn. (1)

Now since we are given the values of $w=4$ and $t=\frac{5}{12}$ , we can plug them in Eqn. (1) and find our constant of proportionality $a$ as follow:
