Question

i have a question about this question

Suppose y varies inversely with x. Write an equation for the inverse variation.


y = 10 when x = 2.4

Answer 1

do you know how to write a inverse variation

Answer 2

no i do not i'm kind o struggling in math

Answer 3

ok

Answer 4

are there answer choices

Answer 5

yes

Answer 6

can you put them please

Answer 7

yo u gonna post em?

Answer 8

An inverse variation can be represented by the equation xy=k or y=kx .

Answer 9

y * x = 24.
Or you can write it as y = 24/x.

Answer 10

y = 10 when x = 2.4

A.
xy = 0.24


Student Selected Correct
B.
xy = 24


Disabled
C.
y = 24x

Answer 11

for an inverse variation:

xy = k
where k is a constant

in other words, in an inverse variation, x and y will always multiply together to get the constant k

so applying this to your problem: just multiply your x and y together to get k

then take the equation xy = k and fill in your k value
