Question 835038
Suppose that y varies directly as w and inversely as t.
y = kw/t
----------------------
Solve for "k" using "y=4 when w=1/4 and t=1/2"
1/2 = k*(1/4)/4
---
k = 2/(1/4) = 8
-------
Equation: y = 8*w/t
-----------------------------
Find y when w=2 and t=16
----------
y = 8*2/16 = 1
---------------------
