Question

y varies inversely with x and y = 5 when x = 2.

Which is the inverse variation equation for the relationship?

Answer 1

"y varies inversely with x" means \(y = \dfrac{k}{x}\), where k is unknown constant.

You can find k by plug in y=5 and x=2 then solve for k

Answer 2

Does k = 10?

Answer 3

Would the answer be y=10/x
