The time it takes you to go a certain distance varies inversely with the speed of travel. Suppose it takes you 4 hours to get to

a sports event driving at a rate of 50 miles per hour.
a) Find the constant of variation. Write the particular equation expressing time in terms of speed.




b) How long will it take you to get to the event if you drive at 40 mph?

\bf \qquad \qquad \textit{inverse proportional variation}
\\\\
\textit{\underline{y} varies inversely with \underline{x}}\qquad \qquad  y=\cfrac{k}{x}\impliedby 
\begin{array}{llll}
k=constant\ of\\
\qquad  variation
\end{array}\\\\
-------------------------------

\bf \textit{time it takes varies inversely with the speed rate}\qquad \stackrel{time}{t}=\cfrac{k}{\stackrel{rate}{r}}
\\\\\\
\textit{we also know that }
\begin{cases}
t=\stackrel{hrs}{4}\\
r=\stackrel{mph}{50}
\end{cases}\implies 4=\cfrac{k}{50}\implies 200=k
\\\\\\
\boxed{t=\cfrac{200}{r}}
\\\\\\
\textit{if your rate r = 40, what is your distance \underline{t}?}\qquad t=\cfrac{200}{40}

Answer:

The answer is option 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the TU and UF added up together to form a length of 32. In order to find TU, you have to subtract length of UF from 32 :

TU + UF = 32

TU + 20 = 32

TU = 32 - 20

TU = 12

We take the equation 4x+y=5 and subtract 4x from both sides to get
                                              y = 5 - 4x
The answer to this question is <span>y=5−4x.</span>

which choice could be the equation of a line parallel to the line represented by this equation 3x-2y=6 A) 2x-3y=6 B ) y=3/2x+4 C
ozzi
3x - 2y = 6
-2y = -3x + 6
y = 3/2x - 3.....the slope here is 3/2. A parallel line will have the same slope.

so ur answer is : y = 3/2x + 4...because the slope here is 3/2
