Answer:

The answer is y = 6/x ⇒ answer A

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise what is the meaning of the inverse variation

- It is a mathematical relationship between two variables

- It can be expressed by an equation in which the product of two

 variables is equal to a constant

- If y is in inverse variation with x

∴ y ∝ 1/x

- Change this relation to equation

∴ y = k/x, where k is the constant of the variation

- We can write it by another way

∵ y ∝ 1/x

∴ y = k/x ⇒ by using cross multiplication

∴ yx = k

* Now lets solve the problem

∵ There is an inverse variation between the two variables x and y

∴ y ∝ 1/x

∴ y = k/x

- Look to the answer

# We will chose A because

∵ y = 6/x  ⇒ use the cross multiplication

∴ yx = 6 ⇒ and 6 is a constant

∴ k = 6

* The answer is y = 6/x

Without dividing or listing multiples how can you tell if 61 is a multiple of 6.
Ostrovityanka [42]
For a number to be a multiple of 6, it must be divisible by 6
and a number divisble by 6 means that it is divisble by 2 and 3

since the ones digit is odd it is not divisble by 2 which means 61 is not a multiple of 6
