Does the data in the data in the table represent a direct variation or an inverse variation. write an equation to model the data in the table x 2 4 8 12
y 4 2 1 2/3

  y = 8/x

Step-by-step explanation:

Y goes down when X goes up, so the variation is not direct.

The product of x and y is a constant, 8, so that is the constant associated with the inverse variation formula:

  y = k/x

  xy = k = 8

So, the model is ...

  y = 8/x

x equals 1

step-by-step explanation:

f(4)=f(×)

x=1
