Answer:
the first one
Step-by-step explanation:
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:36 postcards
Step-by-step explanation:
jenny bought 12 post cards
joe bought half of the postcards jenny bought = 12/2 = 6
ruth bought 3 times the postcards joe bought = 3 x 6 = 18
total postcards bought by all = 12 + 6 + 18 = 36 postcards
