Suppose you are having a birthday party at the local bowling alley. You are trying to figure out how many people you can afford to invite.

b. How much money are you willing to spend?
c. Set up an equation that shows the inverse relationship between the number of guests at your party and the price per bowler. Your answer to part b should be a part of this equation.

My answer for part b is $100 and I understand what the question in asking for as well as what an inverse variation is, however, how would I start setting up this equation?

1 answer

guests * price = k
for some constant k.
