the amountof time for a trp varies inversely as the speed traveled.
\n" ); document.write( "t = k/s
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "a car reached its destination in 9 hours traveling at 60 mph .
\n" ); document.write( "Find \"k\" by substituting these numbers:
\n" ); document.write( "9 = k/60
\n" ); document.write( "k = 540
\n" ); document.write( "Equation: t = 540/s
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------------------\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " what must its speed be to get there in only 8 hours?
\n" ); document.write( "8 = 540/s
\n" ); document.write( "s = 540/8 = 135/2= 67.5 mph
\n" ); document.write( "=================================
