The equation for this inverse relation is
\n" ); document.write( "t = k/r
\n" ); document.write( "Now plug in to find k...
\n" ); document.write( "5 = k/80
\n" ); document.write( "k = 400
\n" ); document.write( "Now rewrite it using the new k and plug in the new data...
\n" ); document.write( "t = 400/r
\n" ); document.write( "t = 400/7 hrs or 57 1/7 hours
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
