Suppose that y varies inversely with x. Write a function that models the inverse function. x = 1 when y = 12?
y=1/12 x
y=12/x
y=1/12x
y=12x
y=1/12 x
y=12/x
y=1/12x
y=12x

Explanation:
The statement is expressed as
#yprop1/x# To convert to an equation introduce k, the constant of variation.
#rArry=kxx1/x=k/x# To find k use the condition that x = 1 when y = 12
#y=k/xrArrk=xy=1xx12=12#
#rArry=12/x" is the function"#
