ANSWER

The constant of variation is 6.

EXPLANATION

The inverse variation equation is:

xy = k

We want to find the constant of variation, when x=-3 and y=-2.

We substitute the values for x and y to get,

- 3 \times  - 2 = k

Multiply out the left hand keeping in mind that negative times negative yields a positive result.

This implies that;

k= 6

Hence the constant of variation is 6.

Answer:

The constant of variation k is 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that there is inverse variation between x and y with equation

xy=k

we have to find the constant of variation k when x=-3 and y=-2

The inverse variation equation is:

xy = k

To find constant of variation we substitute the values of x and y

Put x=-3 and y=-2

(-3)\times (-2)=k

Solve LHS by multiplying

This implies

k= 6

Hence the constant of variation is 6.
