\n" ); document.write( "y varies inversely as x --> y = k/x where k is some constant.
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "y=8 when x=4 --> 8 = k/4 --> k = 32
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "find y when x=16
\n" ); document.write( "y = 32/16
\n" ); document.write( "y = 2
