Describe a real world situation that can be modeled by the equation y = 1/20x. be sure to describe what each variable represents.

A real world example could be:
Consider x is time in minutes
Consider y is the amount of fish food required in grams

The equation could then represent how much food (in grams) that a fish needs to be fed x minutes after it was previously fed.

For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables.
 We have then:
 x: number of minutes
 y: total cost
 We have then the following description:
 The gym in a city charges $ 1 for every 20 minutes of training a person does every day. Write an equation that models the problem.
 The equation that models the problem is:
 [tex]y = \frac{1}{2}x [/tex]
 Where the slope of the line is:
 [tex]m = \frac{1}{2} [/tex]
 And it represents the cost of the gym for every 20 minutes of training.
