What is the inverse variation?
The inverse variation is the indirect relationship between two variables. The form of the inverse variation is xy = k where k is any real constant.
How do you do a direct variation with an inverse variation problem?
If a variable X is in inverse variation with a variable Y, then it is in direct variation with the variable (1/Y).
Find the constant variation k for the inverse variation then write an equation for the inverse variation y 2.5 when x 9?
The equation is xy = 22.5
What does the graph of an inverse variation look like?
A hyperbola.
How do you find if a table is direct variation or inverse variation?
Suppose the two variables are denoted by X and Y. If Y is a constant multiple of X, that is Y = c*X, then the variation is direct. If the value of X*Y is a constant, that is Y = c/X, then the variation in inverse.
