Question

We are given the inverse variation equation xy = 345. Complete the following statement:x ________ as y remains constant.
Answer

increases

decreases

remains constant

Answer 1

Rewrite: \[y = \frac{345}{x}\]

Restate: y is inversely proportional to x.

Now answer the question.

Answer 2

@tkhunny It would decrease?

Answer 3

No wait Constand?

Answer 4

Good try. That might be a likely conclusion for Inverse Proportionality.

y increases as x decreases.
y decreases as y increases

y constant - so is x.

Answer 5

So constant is the correct answer? @tkhunny

Answer 6

You have it.
