Question 659286: Tell whether the relationship between x and y is an inverse variation, If it is, Write an equation for it:
x 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
y 48 24 16 12 9.6 8 6.8 6 5.3 4.8
I think it's an inverse variation but I dont know how to write an equation for it.
Answer by jim_thompson5910(35256) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Since 1*48 = 48, 2*24 = 48, 3*16 = 48, etc etc
This means x*y = 48, which tells us that this is an inverse variation.
Solve for y to get which is your equation.
