The time t required to drive a fixed distance varies inversely as the speed r.
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "t = k/r
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "Solve for \"k\" using \"It takes 5 hrs at a speed of 80 km/h to drive a fixed distance\".
\n" ); document.write( "5 = k/80
\n" ); document.write( "k = 400
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "t = 400/r
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------
\n" ); document.write( "How long will it take to drive the same distance at a speed of 70 km/h?
\n" ); document.write( "----------------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "t(70) = 400/70 = 5.71 hours
\n" ); document.write( "=========================================
