A. W = \(\frac{k_1M}{k_2P}\)
B. W = (\(k_1 + k_2\))\(\frac{\text{M}}{\text{P}}\)
C. W = k\(_1\)M + \(\frac{k_2}{P}\)

Correct Answer: Option C

Explanation

W ∝ M and W ∝ \(\frac{1}{P}\)

If a variable W varies partly as M and partly inversely as P, the relationship can be expressed as:

W = k\(_1\)M + \(\frac{k_2}{P}\)
