(8,1) and (x,3) The pair of points is on the graph of an inverse variation. Find the missing value.

Gelneren [198K]

$\bf \qquad \qquad \textit{inverse proportional variation}
\\\\
\textit{\underline{y} varies inversely with \underline{x}}\qquad \qquad y=\cfrac{k}{x}\impliedby 
\begin{array}{llll}
k=constant\ of\\
\qquad variation
\end{array}\\\\
-------------------------------$

$\bf (\stackrel{x}{8},\stackrel{y}{1})\textit{ we know that }
\begin{cases}
x=8\\
y=1
\end{cases}\implies 1=\cfrac{k}{8}\implies 8=k
\\\\\\
therefore\qquad \boxed{y=\cfrac{8}{x}}
\\\\\\
(x,\stackrel{y}{3})\textit{ when y = 3, what is \underline{x}?}\qquad 3=\cfrac{8}{x}\implies x=\cfrac{8}{3}$

Darnell's car used 8 gallons of gasoline to travel 340 miles. after a mechanic worked on the car, it used 7 gallons of gasoline

ollegr [7]

Before the mechanic worked on it, it cost .09 (cents) per mile. After the mechanic worked on it, it cost .08 (cents) per mile. Divide the number of gallons by the miles in each case and multiply the result by 4.
