Answer 1

Answer 2

didn't mean to close it

Answer 3

with a direct variation as one variable increases or decreases the other variable increases or decreases

eg y = 4 x

y= 2, x = 1/2
y = 4 , x= 1

Answer 4

c?

Answer 5

for an inverse variation
as y increases x decreases and vice versa

Answer 6

@welshfella is it c

Answer 7

yes c is one

Answer 8

there is also another

another inverse function is y = 1/x

Answer 9

can you see a similar one to that ?

Answer 10

yeah b right? which one would you choose if you had to? I feel like its c because it makes more sense

Answer 11

c is correct but there is another one similar to the one i mentioned in my last post

Answer 12

b is incorrect because if you invert both sides it gives x = 2y which is direct variation

Answer 13

is d
