Question

Write the inverse variation equation of the following: Y varies inversely with x and y = -12 when x = 6.
xy = -2
xy = -72
xy = -0.5

Answer 1

I am so confused

Answer 2

`Y varies inversely with X`

We can write that like so,\[\large y=k\frac{1}{x}\]

See how they relate to one another inversely?
The \(\large k\) is a constant of variation.
Use the information they gave you to solve for \(\large k\).

Answer 3

ok
