Explanation:
When Y varies inversely as x, we can express the relationship of such by:
Hence, substituting your values of x and y can give the value of the constant k.
So,
Now that the value of k is known.
Overall, the equation would be:
The question would usually give you a value of

Explanation:
"the initial statement is "yprop1/x
"to convert to an equation multiply by k the constant"
"of variation"
rArry=kxx1/x=k/xlarrcolor(blue)"k is the constant of variation"
"to find k use the given condition"
y=45" when "x=7
y=k/xrArrk=yx=45xx7=315
"equation is " color(red)(bar(ul(|color(white)(2/2)color(black)(y=315/x)color(white)(2/2)|)))
