Suppose that y varies inversely with x, and y=6 when x=8. what is an equation for the inverse variation?
y=x/48
y=2x
x=y/2
y=48/x

Answer 1

y varies inversely as x implies that as x increases y decreases and vice versa. Thus if y varies inversely as x, then y = k/x where k is the constant of variation.

Answer 2

The first thing you must do is find the constant k.

Answer 3

okay

Answer 4

the last one is the answer
