y waries inversely as x...THIS MEANS Y=K/X WHERE K IS A CONSTANT
\n" ); document.write( " and y=18 when x=3.SUBSTITUTING IN ABOVE EQN.,WE GET ..18=K/3..OR..K=18*3=54
\n" ); document.write( "Find the constant of variation....=54
\n" ); document.write( "Then write an equation for the relation....Y=54/X
\n" ); document.write( "
