Question

p and q are inversely proportional, if p is decreased by 5, what happens to q

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

As p value is inversely proportional to q, we must realise that decrease in q increases p.  

So halving q is doubling p.  

Increase is 100%  

(Note New value of p is double or 200% of original value, percent change = 100%

Answer 2

Answer:1/5
