Answer:

p = 10.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that p is directly proportional to (p-1)² and p is always positive, then;

q = k (p-1)²

If q = 30 and p = 7

30 = k(7-1)²

30 = 6²k

30 = 36k

5 = 6k

k = 5/6

To get p when q = 80

q =k (p-1)²

80 = 5/6((p-1)²

480 = 5(p-1)²

480/5 = (p-1)²

(p-1)² = 96

p-1 = √96

p-1 = 9.8

p = 9.8 + 1

p = 10.8

B) 6
