SOLUTION: Graph each equation using a graphing calculator. Choose whichfunction is an inverse variation. A) y/x=5 B) y=5/x C) y= 13x*2

Question 850243: Graph each equation using a graphing calculator. Choose whichfunction is an inverse variation.
A) y/x=5
B) y=5/x
C) y= 13x*2
Answer by jim_thompson5910(35256) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Graph of Choice A) y/x=5 (note: you have to solve for y first to get y = 5x... x cannot equal 0)

Graph of Choice B) y = 5/x, x cannot equal 0

Graph of Choice C) y = 13x^2 ... Note: I'm assuming you meant to say "13 x squared"

====================================================================

B) y=5/x is an inverse variation since it is in the form (in this case, k = 5)
