Write the inverse variation function given that y varies inversely with x, and y = 0.25 when x = 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a given variable varies inversely with another variable, an increase in the value of the given variable would cause a corresponding decrease in the value of the other variable. Also, a decrease in the value of the given variable would cause a corresponding increase in the value of the other variable.

If y varies inversely with x, we would introduce a cost of variation, k so that the expression becomes

y = k/x

When y = 0.25, x = 8

Substituting into the expression above, it becomes

0.25 = k/8

k = 0.25 × 8

k = 2

The inverse variation function is

y = 2/x

$75.00

step-by-step explanation:

i = prt

i = 1,5000 * 0.025 * 2

i = 75
