Question 98655


       If y varies inversely as x and y=3, when x=6. Find y when x=36. 

             y varies inversely as x   or y = k/x 
                                          k = xy  where k is a proportionality 

           constant

               when x= 6 y =3 k = 6.3 = 18
 
               when x = 36  y = k/36 = 18/36 = 1/2
