Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If two values and
are inversely proportional, their product is <em>always</em> some maintained constant (the product of
and
is always maintained). This way, if one goes up, the other must go down by the same extent. By definition, this represents an inversely proportional relationship.
Therefore, we can simply find this constant by multiplying the given values of and
:
The constant must be maintained as the product of
and
for all values of
and
for them to be inversely proportional. Thus, we have the equation:
Divide both sides by to isolate
