You can put this solution on YOUR website!
W is inversely proportional to V.
\n" ); document.write( "W = k/V
\n" ); document.write( "k = constant of proportionality
\n" ); document.write( "To find 'k'
\n" ); document.write( "W = k/V
\n" ); document.write( "20 = k/12
\n" ); document.write( "k = 240
\n" ); document.write( "Formula:
\n" ); document.write( "W = 240/V
\n" ); document.write( "W = 240/15
\n" ); document.write( "W = 16.
\n" ); document.write( "Hope this helps.
