Which equation represents an inverse variation?

1 answer:

7 0

Answer: Choice C) y = 30/x

Inverse variation equations are of the form y = k/x. In this case, k = 30. We can rearrange the format to get x*y = k after multiplying both sides by x. So y = 30/x can be turned into x*y = 30.

Your fractions are your units and rates.

A "section" is a unit and 2 of 9 sections is a rate.
An hour is a unit and 1 of 10 hours is a rate.

You can multiply the fractions and create a new unit rate that would measure a section per hour.
I hope this helps.
