The cost per person for 25 people is 15.20

How to determine the cost per person?

An inverse variation is represented as:

k = xy

Where:

  • k represents the proportionality constant
  • y represents the cost per person
  • x represents the number of persons

So, we have:

40 * 9.50 = 25 * y

Divide both sides by 25

y = 15.20

Hence, the cost per person for 25 people is 15.20
