\bf \qquad \qquad \textit{inverse proportional variation}

k=constant\ of\\
\qquad  variation
\end{array}\\\\
-------------------------------

\bf (\stackrel{x}{8},\stackrel{y}{1})\textit{ we know that }
\begin{cases}
x=8\\
y=1
\end{cases}\implies 1=\cfrac{k}{8}\implies 8=k
\\\\\\
therefore\qquad \boxed{y=\cfrac{8}{x}}
\\\\\\
(x,\stackrel{y}{3})\textit{ when y = 3, what is \underline{x}?}\qquad 3=\cfrac{8}{x}\implies x=\cfrac{8}{3}

Answer:

  600, 1400, 3000, and 5000

Step-by-step explanation:

The profit equation can be simplified.

  P = 350n -(150n +1000)

  P = 200n -1000 . . . . . . . . . collect terms

  P = 200(n -5) . . . . . . . . . . . factor out 200

For the given numbers n, we have ...

  P = 200({8, 12, 20, 30} -5) = 200{3, 7, 15, 25} = {600, 1400, 3000, 5000}

Profits for 8, 12, 20, and 30 customers are 600, 1400, 3000, and 5000, respectively.

28.333333333. If you do a proportion and place it 1/(?) times .6/(17) you should multiply 17 by 1 (17*1) which should equal 17. You now have to divide it so 17 divided by .6 (17/6) which equals to 28.333333.
