when two items are inversely related it simply means as one increases the other decreases.
:
inverse relationships take the form of ab=k or a=k/b where a varies inversely with b.
:
so in our problem we have I varies inversely with
:
therefore we take the form of or or...so k=4:
find I when W is 1/3...you would expect since W is decreasing that I will increase.
:
I(W)=k or or ..
