SOLUTION
From the question, we are told that y varies inversely as x
This is mathematically written as
Now, we will remove the proportionality sign and replace it with equal to sign =
If we do this, we will intoduce a constant k
So we have the formula
We will substitute the values of x for 10 and y for 8 into the formula to get k, we have
Now, we will substitute k for 80 back into the formula to get the inverse function, we have
Hence the answer is option C
Answer:
24 times
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : A small bottle of vanilla extract has 16 ounces in it.
To Find : if each batch of cookies baked requires 2/3 of an ounce of vanilla how many times can the bakery use the bottle before it is empty?
Solution :
No. of batch of cookies requires 2/3 ounce of vanilla = 1
No, of batch of cookies requires 1 ounce of vanilla =
No. of batches require 16 ounces of vanilla =
= 24
Thus, bakery can use 24 times the bottle before it is empty.
