Instead of doing your problem for you, I'll do one exactly like it
with the numbers changed.
Find the constant of proportionality when T varies inversely as S, 
and T = 0.3 when S = 9. 

Then write the specific inverse variation equation that relates T and S.

Find the constant of proportionality when 

T varies inversely as S, 



and T = 0.3 when S = 9.







Then write the specific inverse variation equation that relates T and S.



Now do yours with your numbers the same way.
