Inverse Variation Functions Review

The number of hours to paint a house varies inversely with the number of painters working. A 2400-square foot house can be painted in 27 hours by 6 painters. How many painters would need to work in order to paint the house in 18 hours?

• 8 painters

• 10 painters

• 9 painters

• 11 painters
