Question

(Answer is 32) For the inverse variation equation p = 8/V, what is the value of p when V = 1/4 ?

1/32

1/2

2

32 <—— this is the correct answer!

Answer 1

p = 32

Explanation:

Given expression:

p =
`(8)/(v)`

Since v =
`(1)/(4)`

Now insert the parameters and solve;

p =
`(8)/((1)/(4) )`

p = 8 ÷
`(1)/(4)`

p = 8 x 4

p = 32
