- The force needed to break a board varies inversely with its length. If Tom uses 20 pounds of pressure to break a 1 .5-foot long board, how many pounds of pressure would he need to use to break a 6 foot long board?arrow_forwardIf y varies inversely with x and y=11 when x=3 find the equation that relates x and y.arrow_forwardThe resistance of a copper wire carrying an electrical current is directly proportional to its length and inversely proportional to its cross-sectional area. A copper wire with a diameter of 0.0126inch has a resistance of 64.9ohms per thousand feet. What length of 0.0201-inch-diameter copper wire will produce a resistance of 33.5ohms?arrow_forward
