A construction team gives an estimate of three months to repave a large stretch of a very busy road with their core crew of 15 people. The government responds that it is too much of an inconvenience to have this busy road obstructed for three months, so the job must be completed in one month. If the relationship between construction time and crew members is inversely proportional, how many crew members does the construction team need if they are to complete the job in one month?

Linear Functions

A linear function can just be a constant, or it can be the constant multiplied with the variable like x or y. If the variables are of the form, x2, x1/2 or y2 it is not linear. The exponent over the variables should always be 1.
