An administrator of a popular web site is told that a new server can handle 41,000 "hits" (users accessing the site) per second. The web site currently experiences a peak demand of about 105,000 hits per second; but every month, the peak demand increases by 2800 hits per second. Use a proportion equation to determine how many new servers the administrator should buy to address expected traffic for the next 24 months

  1. 41,000 : 1   <-- ratio of hits per second to number of servers

    105,000 + 2,800(x-1)   <-- the number of hits per second for a month x

    x = month

    f(x) = no. of servers required

    f(x) = [105,000 + 2,800(x-1)]/41,000

    Simplify as:

    f(x) = [525 + 14(x-1)]/205
