Question

If two quantities x and y vary inversely with each other then

Answer 1

Two quantities x and y are said to be in inverse proportion if an increase in x causes a proportional decrease in y (and vice-versa) in such a manner that the product of their corresponding values remains constant.That is, if xy = k, then x and y are said to vary inversely.

Answer 2

Inverse Variation:

explanation:

• Inverse variation means in simple words is that if we are increasing the onew value of onew thing then the value of other thing shouls decrese then we say that both the terms or number or may be things are varying inversely.

• If we have two quantities x and y which are varying inversely which means increasing in one quantity will result in decreasing the other quantity.

• Or we can also write them as if x and y inversely then the product of x and y should be constant.

                       $x\times y = k$
