15 point question The cost per person c of chartering a tour bus
varies inversely as the number of passengers
n. If it costs $22.50 per person to charter a
bus for 20 passengers, how much will it cost
per person to charter a bus for 36 passengers?

It will cost $12.5 per person to charter a bus for 36 passengers

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost per person c of chartering a tour bus  varies inversely as the number of passengers  n.

We can write:

where k is constant of proportionality

We are given when c = 22.50, n = 20

We need to find c when n = 36

First using c = 22.50, n = 20 we will find k, the constant of proportionality

So, we get k = 450

Now, we will find c when n = 36

So, we get the value of c: c = 12.5

Therefore, It will cost $12.5 per person to charter a bus for 36 passengers

the terms of a geometric sequence can be found by beginning with the first term and multiplying by the common ratio repeatedly. a recursive formula for a geometric sequence with common ratio r is given by an=ran−1 a n = r a n − 1 for n≥2 n ≥ 2 .

step-by-step explanation:

answer is because 4×10=40

and 98×4= is 392
