Answer by Earlsdon(6294) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
If x varies inversely as , then you can write as:
where k is the constant of variation.
To find the value of k, you substitute the given numbers for x (x = 2) and y (y = 24) and solve for k.
Multiply both sides by 24.

So now the equation can be written:

To find x when y = 6, just substitute y = 6 and solve for x.

Simplify this.
