Answer:
If y varies inversely as x, then we write it as:
y = k/x
where k is some constant.
If we multiply both sides of this equation by x we get an equation for k:
k = x*y
We are given that y=4 when x=7, therefore:
k = 7*4 = 28
Put this back into our original equation to get:
y = 28/x
F(n) = 75*1/5n
This is because the base value would be 75 and it is divided by 5 each part of the sequence.
Answer:
C. 4,100
Step-by-step explanation:
"60% more" is represented by a multiplier of 1 + 0.60 = 1.60.
"60% fewer" is represented by a multiplier of 1 - 0.60 = 0.40.
__
Let b represent the number of booklets distributed by Team B. Then the number distributed by Team A is ...
1.60 × (0.40b) . . . . 60% more boxes, each with 60% fewer booklets
= 0.64b
Then the total distributed by both teams is ...
b + 0.64b = 1.64b = (164/100)b = (41/25)b
The only answer choice that is a multiple of 41 is ...
4,100 . . . choice C
__
For 4100 to be the number of booklets distributed by both teams, Team B will have distributed 2500 booklets, and Team A will have distributed 1600 booklets. Team A might have distributed 160 boxes of 100 booklets, while Team B might have distributed 100 boxes of 250 booklets.
