An adult elephant drinks about 225 liters of water each day. Is the number ofdays the water supply lasts proportional to the numberof liters of water the elephant drinks?Is it proportional

Sagot :

An elephant drinks 225 liters of water per day, then in 2 days it drinks 2*225 = 450 liters, in 3 days it drinks 3*225 = 675 liters.

time (days) | 1 | 2 | 3

water (L) | 225 | 450 | 675

If an elephant drinks more water per day, the number of days the water supply lasts decrease. Then these two variables are inversely proportional.
