Answer:

\frac{16}{9}  hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Whenever 2 quantities (suppose a and b) are inversely proportional to each other, we can write an proportionality equation (with k as proportional constant) as:

a=\frac{k}{b}

Since, here t is INVERSELY PROPORTIONAL to r, we can say:

t=\frac{k}{r}

Firstly, we have t = 2 hour and r = 40 mph, so we find k:

t=\frac{k}{r}\\2=\frac{k}{40}\\k=2*40\\k=80

Now, secondly, we have r = 45 and k = 80, we need to find t:

t=\frac{80}{45}\\t=\frac{16}{9}

So, it would take  \frac{16}{9}  hours

52.75 with a 25% discount. How much will he pay for it?
Allisa [31]

Answer:

He pays $39.56

Step-by-step explanation:

If finding the discount, always divide the percent by 100.

25% = 0.25

52.75*0.25=13.1875

Because its money, round to hundredths place, $13.19

Subtract the "percent" (13.19) from 52.75

52.75 - 13.19 = $39.56

Each output value is equal to the square of the input value minus<br> five
Ivenika [448]

i think that A pair of an input value and its corresponding output value is called an ordered pair and can be written as (a, b). In an ordered pair the first number, the input a, corresponds to the horizontal axis and the second number, the output b, corresponds to the vertical axis.

We can thus write our values as ordered pairs

(0, 0) - This ordered pair is also referred to as the origin

(1, 2.5)

(2, 5)

(3, 7.5)

These ordered pairs can then be plotted into a graph.
