\"p=kt\" using k as proportionality constant. This k is also the READING RATE in pages per minute.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Given p=90 and t=60, \"k=p%2Ft=90%2F60=3%2F2\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The student reads according to \"highlight%28p=%283%2F2%29t%29\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Your question is, find p for t=90; so just substitute this and compute p.
\n" ); document.write( "\"p=%283%2F2%29%2A90\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"p=3%2A45\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"p=135\"
