[tex]\Large\color{aqua}\underline\mathbb{CONSTANT \: OF \: VARIATION}[/tex]
5-7. find the value of the constant of variation.
[tex]\\[/tex]
Variable y varies inversely as x
To determine the constant of variation, substitute the given values of x and y to the equation of variation.
[tex]\\[/tex]
1. y = 2, x = 3
------------------------------------------
2. y = 1/2, x = 4/5
- yx = k
- (1/2)(4/5) = k
- 2/5 = k
------------------------------------------
3. y = 4, x = 1/5
- yx = k
- (4)(1/5) = k
- 4/5 = k
[tex]\\[/tex]------------------------------------------
[tex]\\[/tex]
[tex]\color{purple}\underline\mathbb{ANSWER:}[/tex]
- 1. k = 6
- 2. k = 2/5
- 3. k = 4/5
