Suppose that y varies inversely with x. write an equation for the inverse variation. Y=6 when x=8

Answer: y = 48/x

Step-by-step explanation:

y ∝ 1/x

Introducing the proportionality constant, we have

y = k/x

substituting the value of x and y, we have

6 = k/8

k = 48

Therefore the equation becomes

y = 48/x
