Answer:

y = -\frac{8}{x}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Inverse Variation:

Points: \{(-1, 8), (4, -2), (-2, 4)\}

Required

Determine the equation of the relation

An inverse relation is represented as:

y = \frac{k}{x}

Where k = constant of variation

Make k the subject:

k = xy

When x = -1, y = 8

So, we have:

k = -1 * 8

k = -8

When x = 4, y = -2

k = 4 * -2

k = -8

When x = -2, y = 4

k= -2 * 4

k = -8

From above calculations, we've established that:

k = -8

Substitute -8 for k in y = \frac{k}{x}

y = \frac{-8}{x}

y = -\frac{8}{x}

Hence, the equation is:

y = -\frac{8}{x}

If y varies directly as x and y = 24 when<br> x= 16, what is y when x = 50? PLEASE ANSWER ASAP!!!!
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

y = 75

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

y\ \alpha\ \ x

y=24; x =16

Required

Find y when x = 50

We have:

y\ \alpha\ \ x

Express as equation

y = kx

Solve for k

k = \frac{y}{x}

When y=24; x =16

k = \frac{24}{16}

k = \frac{3}{2}

When x = 50, we have:

y = kx

y = \frac{3}{2} * 50

y = 75
