Answer:

a) k = 8

b) p = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given that p varies inversely as Q

                           p∝ Q

                           p = k Q

Given that p = 4 and Q = 0.5

                        4 = k (0.5)

                       k = [tex]\frac{4}{0.5} = 8[/tex]

Step(ii):-

 Given that Q = 1.5

                  p = k Q

                 p = 8 (1.5)

                p = 12
