Given:

A high school choir is holding a fundraiser for its spring contest trip. The amount each student needs to raise varies as the number of students

who participate in the fundraiser. If 50 students participate in the fundraiser, each student needs to raise $275.

Required:

Complete the statements.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1:

1. The proportional situation represents inverse variation

This is because, the total amount that they hope to raise is the same regardless of the number of students

Part 2:


\begin{gathered} K=SA \\ K=50*275 \\ K=13.750 \end{gathered}

The constant of variation, k, is equal to $13,750.

Part 3:


\begin{gathered} K=SA \\ A=(K)/(S) \\ A=(13750)/(100) \\ A=137.5 \end{gathered}

If all 100 students in choir participate in the fundraiser, each will need to raise $137.5.

Answer:

answered the statements.
