Question

the value of a boat varies inversely with age. If a boat is worth $7000 when it is 3 years old, how much will it be worth when it is 7 years old

Answer 1

Explanation:

let worth be y and age be x

y = k/x, where k is a constant, k ≠ 0

7000 = k/3

21000 = k

y = 21000/7

y = 3000

$3000
