Question

The variables x and y vary inversely. If x=1.5 and y=50, write an equation that relates to x and y. Please help if you can, thanks(:

Answer 1

Inverse variation means
\[\Large y = \frac{ k }{ x }\]
You need to find k, given you have x=1.5 and y=50, so plug those in:
\[\Large 50 = \frac{ k }{ 1.5 }\]
Now find k... you can multiply both sides of the equation by 1.5
