The amount of oil used by a ship traveling at uniform speed varies jointly with the distance and the square of speed. If the ship uses 400 barrels of oil in traveling 500 miles at 40 miles per hour, determine how many barrles of oil are used when the ship travles 400 miles at 20 miles perhour.

I got: 160 barrels
