Answer:

Inverse relationship

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation we are looking at is;

y = 87.2/x

which implies xy = 87.2

If it was a direct relationship

y = constant * x

if it was inverse, it would have been

y * x = constant

since 87.2 is a constant, the question looks exactly like the second scenario.

This means that what we have is an inverse relationship

A school baseball team earned $3416.90 from selling 5716 tickets to their game. If grandstand tickets sold for 65 cents each and
Nataly [62]
Let g and b represent the numbers of grandstand and bleacher tickets sold.
.. g + b = 5716 . . . . . . . . . total number of tickets sold
.. 65g +40b = 341690 . . value of tickets sold

Using the first equation
.. g = 5716 -b
Sustituting into the second equation
.. 65(5716 -b) +40b = 341690
.. -25b + 371540 = 341690 . . . . . collect terms
.. -25b = -29850 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 371540
.. b = 1194 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by -25

1194 bleacher tickets were sold.

They eat 5/8 pounds

Amount left = 5/6 - 5/8

= (20 - 15)/24
