Answer:
B. p varies inversely as r
Step-by-step explanation:
Since, p varies directly as q
[tex] \therefore p\:\:\alpha \:\:q\\
\therefore p= kq.. (k = constant)... (1)\\
[/tex]
Since, q varies inversely as r
[tex] \therefore q\:\:\alpha \:\:\frac{1}{r} \\
\therefore q= \frac{k}{r} .. (k = constant)... (2)\\
[/tex]
From equations (1) & (2)
[tex] p = k\times \frac{k}{r}\\
p = \frac{k^2}{r}\\
p\:\:\alpha \:\: \frac{1}{r}\\
[/tex]
Hence, p varies inversely as r.
