Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

N is inversely proportional to t, therefore:

N ∝ 1/t

Let k be the constant of proportionality, hence we can replace the relationship by:

N = k/t

Given that when t is 36, N is 176. Therefore we can find the value of k:

176 = k / 36

k = 176 * 36 = 6336

N = 6336/t

Also let us find N when t = 6. This is done by substituting t = 6 into the equation and simplifying:

N = 6336/6

N = 1056
