Answer:

• the equation kind is incorrect

• the equation is incorrect

• the equation should be: y = 15/x

Step-by-step explanation:

We observe that the data tells us the time is inversely proportional to the number of workers, and that the product of time and workers is 15 worker·hours. The form for inverse proportionality is ...

y = k/x

or

xy = k

Our observation tells us k = 15 (worker·hours), so our model equation is ...

y = 15/x . . . . . where x is the number of workers, and y is the hours to paint the room

1. no decimals
