Answer:

t = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that t varies inversely with a then the equation relating them is

t = [tex]\frac{k}{a}[/tex] ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition t = 2 when a = 36, that is

2 = [tex]\frac{k}{36}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by 36 )

72 = k

t = [tex]\frac{72}{a}[/tex] ← equation of variation

Given a = 3, then

t = [tex]\frac{72}{3}[/tex] = 24
