Question

Luke has a situation on his hands. A pipe in his house froze and cracked from cold weather. Now he has a water leak. The leak has been releasing 2/3 of a liter of water every 2 hours. If w represents the amount of water lost and h represents the number of hours. Which equation represents this proportional relationship? A. W=3h B. W=1/3h C. h=1/3w D. 2/3w= 2h

Answer 1

2/3 liters every 2 hrs is (2/3) / 2 = 2/3 * 1/2 = 2/6 = 1/3 liter per hr

so ur equation would be : w = 1/3h
