The answer is b. 200

<span>If y varies inversely as x, then: y = c/x

We know:
y = 40
x = 5

y = c/x
c = y * x
c = 40 * 5
c = 200</span>

Answer:

b. 200

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that y varies inversely as x.

Since we know that equation that represents the inversely proportional relation between y and x is:y=\frac{k}{x}, where,

k= Constant of proportionality.

Upon substituting our given values in above equation we will get,

40=\frac{k}{5}

Let us multiply both sides of our equation by 5.

40\times 5=\frac{k}{5}\times 5

200=k

Therefore, constant of proportionality for our given quantities is 200 and option b is the correct choice.

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!! The yearly population of a city with a 3% yearly growth rate and an initial population of 30,000 can be m
Vesnalui [34]

1, 3, 5

The reasonable domain has a minimum value.

The reasonable range has a minimum value of 30,000.

The reasonable range has an implied, but unknown, maximum value.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Years cannot be anything below 0.

2. The domain includes 0 because the answer can be the initial value.

3. 30,000 is the initial value and is the minimum solution.

4. The range has a minimal of 30,000.

5. Logically, we know city populations cant be numbers like a billion but we prove that mathematically.
