This is an awful question. They mean to say the number of hours practicing <em>per week</em> (we'll call it h) varies inversely with the <em>time</em> (t) she runs her event. Unless they mean to imply more practicing makes Tyler slower, in which case she should just get a pizza.
Inverse variation means the product is a constant, we'll call it k.
ht = k
When h = 1 hour t=6 minutes
(1)(6) = k
k = 6 (hour*minutes, but as long as we're consistent we don't need to sweat the unit.)
Decreasing her time by one minute means t = 6 - 1 = 5. We solve for h.
ht = k
h = k/t = 6/5 = 1.2 hours
Answer: 1.2 hours, second choice
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The ages of Raju and Ravi are in the ratio 3:4 .Four years from now the ratio of their ages will be 4:5 . Find their present ages.
Ratio of ages at present = 3:4
Age of Raju = 3x
Age of Ravi = 4x
Age after four years:
Raju's age = 3x + 4
Ravi's age = 4x + 4
Ratio of ages after four year = 4 : 5
3x +4 : 4x + 4 = 4 : 5
(4x + 4)*4 = (3x + 4)*5
16x + 16 = 15x + 20
Subtract 16 from both sides
16x = 15x + 20 - 16
16x = 15x + 4
Subtract 15x from both sides
16x - 15x = 4
x = 4
Age of Raju = 3x = 3*4 = 12 years
Age of Ravi = 4x = 4*4 = 16 years
6 tons= 12,000 lbs.

Answer:90%
Step-by-step explanation:
18/20=0.9
Percentage means the tenth place so it has to be 90%
1. 7m² + 6.5n - 4n + 2.5m² - n
7m² + 2.5m² + 6.5n - 4n - n
9.5m² + 2.5n - n
9.5m² + 1.5n = 1.7
