Given information
A particular brand of coffee is sold by a store as a function of the price of the coffee.
Step-by-step explanation
Step 1.
Consider the price of a coffee in the -axis and the amount of a particular brand of a coffee sold by a store in the -axis.
As the price increases, the number of items sold by the store decreases.
Now using the graphing utility to sketch the rough graph of the amount of the particular brand of coffee sold by the store as a function of the price of the coffee is shown:
From the above graph note that the amount of a particular brand of coffee sold by the store is inversely proportional to the price of the coffee.
