Question

How do you write inverse variation equation given x =16 , y =1 ?

Answer 1

`y=16/x`

Explanation:

`"the initial statement is "yprop1/x`

`"to convert to an equation multiply by k the"`
`"constant of variation"`

`rArry=kxx1/x=k/x`

`"to find k use the given condition"`

`x=16,y=1`

`y=k/xrArrk=yx=1xx16=16`

`"equation is " color(red)(bar(ul(|color(white)(2/2)color(black)(y=16/x)color(white)(2/2)|))`
