Take his age, subtract off 12 and you get the sister's age

(brother's age) - 12 = sister's age

x - 12 = 14

x - 12+12 = 14+12 ... add 12 to both sides to undo "minus 12"

x = 26

Which of the following equations is an example of inverse variation between the variables x and y
Sonbull [250]

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
