Question

What is inverse variation?

Answer 1

Since k is constant, we can find k given any point by multiplying the x-coordinate by the y-coordinate. For example, if y varies inversely as x , and x = 5 when y = 2 , then the constant of variation is k = xy = 5(2) = 10 . Thus, the equation describing this inverse variation is xy = 10 or y = .

Answer 2

Direct variation means: y varies directly with x
Ex: y=kx where k-constant
here when i increase y x also increases..

Answer 3

Inverse variation is just the opposit..
Ex:y=k/x
here when i increase x, y why decreases
