Which of the following equations is an example of inverse variation between
the variables x and y?

Which of the following equations is an example of inverse variation between the variables x and y class=

Respuesta :

For this case we have that by definition, a direct variation is given by:

[tex]y = kx[/tex]

Where:

k: It is the constant of proportionality of the variables.

On the other hand, we have that the inverse variation is given by:

[tex]y = \frac {k} {x}[/tex]

Where:

k: It is the constant of proportionality of the variables.

In this way, the correct option is: [tex]y = \frac {9} {x}[/tex]

ANswer:

Option A

Answer: Option A

[tex]y = \frac{9}{x}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

It is said that two variables x and y vary inversely if the increase of one of the variables causes the other to decrease.

This is represented by the following equation

[tex]y = \frac{k}{x}[/tex]

Where k is known as variation constant

To answer this question, identify among the options given that the form has

[tex]y = \frac{k}{x}[/tex]

The answer is the option A. with k = 9
