\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} \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}

\bf \textit{we also know that } \begin{cases} \stackrel{f(x)}{y}=6\\ ~~ x=4 \end{cases}\implies 6=\cfrac{k}{4}\implies 24=k~\hfill \boxed{y=\cfrac{24}{x}} \\\\\\ \textit{when x = 8, what is \underline{y}?}\qquad \qquad y=\cfrac{24}{8}\implies y=3

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

  1. 3 hours
  2. 1 hour 45 minutes
  3. 300 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The trains are moving toward each other at a total speed of 50 +20 = 70 miles per hour. Together, they cover the 210 mile distance in ...

  time = distance/speed

  time = 210 mi/(70 mi/h) = 3 h

The trains collide after 3 hours.

__

2. The fly is closing with the freight train at a speed of 100 +20 = 120 miles per hour. Together, the fly and the train cover the initial 210 mile distance in ...

  (210 mi)/(120 mi/h) = 7/4 h = 1 hour 45 minutes

The fly first meets the oncoming freight train after 1 h 45 min.

__

3. The fly is flying for all three hours before the trains collide, so, at 100 miles per hour, will fly 300 miles.
