Translating the first sentence into equation we get, t = k(1/h) where t is time in seconds, k is the constant and h is the horsepower. Substituting the values in the equation we have, 12s = k(1/200) we have a k = 2400 seconds – hp. To get the time at 240 hp we use the equation above and the constant, we get, t = (2400 seconds-hp)(1/240hp) t = 10seconds.
