Use Direct and Inverse Variation · Example 7

The frequency of a guitar string varies inversely with its length. A 26” long string has a frequency of 440 vibrations per second.

ⓐ Write the equation of variation.
ⓑ How many vibrations per second will there be if the string’s length is reduced to 20” by putting a finger on a fret?

Its source prints no answer for this problem, so there's nothing to check against.
