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:
84%
Step-by-step explanation:
The empirical rule tells you that 68% of the standard normal distribution is within 1 standard deviation of the mean. The distribution is symmetrical, so the amount in the lower tail is (1 -68%)/2 = 16%.
Since the number you're interested in, 240, is one standard deviation above the mean (200 +40), the percentage of interest is the sum of the area of the central part of the distribution along with the lower tail:
68% + 16% = 84%.
