Answer:

P = 5

Explanation:

given that P is inversely proportional to w then the equation relating them is

P =
(k)/(w) ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition P =
(10)/(13) when w =
(1)/(8)

k = Pw =
(10)/(13) ×
(1)/(8) =
(10)/(104) =
(5)/(52)

Hence

P =
(5)/(52w) ← equation of variation

When w =
(1)/(52) then

P =
(5)/(52(1/52)) =
(5)/(1) = 5
