Question

the speed of the bus and the time it take to cover a fixed distance are in______ proportion ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer in explanation. Please mark me as brainliast. Hope it helps.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two quantities are in inverse proportion only if one of them increases and the other decreases.

i) Inverse proportion ⇒ If number of workers increases, then the time to complete job decreases.

ii) Not Inverse proportion ⇒ If time taken for a journey increases, then the distance travelled at uniform speed remains same.

iii) Not Inverse proportion ⇒ If area of cultivated land increases, then harvested crop will also increase.

iv) Inverse proportion ⇒ If time taken for a fixed journey increases, then the speed of vehicle decreases, so it is in inverse proportion

v) Inverse proportion ⇒ If population of a country increases, then the area of land per person decreases.

∴ (i), (iv) and (v) are in inverse proportion

Answer 2

Answer:

The speed of the bus and the time it take to cover a fixed distance are in inversely proportion.

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed = Distance/Time – This tells you how slow or fast the object is moving. It describes the distance traveled divided by the time taken to travel the distance.

Speed is proportional to distance and inversely proportional to time. Therefore

Distance = Speed X Time and

Time = distance / speed, as the speed increases, the time taken decreases and vice versa.

All basic problems can be solved using these formulas. However, when using formulas, it is also important to consider the correct use of units.

Each speed, distance and time can be expressed in different units:

Time: seconds (s), minutes (min), hours (h)

Distance: (meters (m), kilometers (km), miles, feet

Speed: m/s, km/h

So if distance = km and time = hour, then speed = distance/time; Speed units are km/h.

Now that the units of speed, time, and distance are clear, let's understand the conversions involved.
