Home Theater The number of home theaters a company sells varies directly as the money spent on advertising. How many home theaters does the company sell for each $500 spent on advertising?
Hint: If the company spends $1000 on advertising, they will sell 16 home theaters. $500/$1000 is ½, so what is ½ of 16?
