Suppose that y varies inversely with x. Write an equation for the inverse variation. y = 6 when x = 8

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

The inverse formula is y=k/x From your question, I'm assuming they want you to solve for k. So plug in x and y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

k=48, so yeah. That is correct
