Answer 2

Answer:

this is your Answer hope it helps you

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement is expressed as

y

∝

1

x

inverse means

1

variable

To convert to an equation introduce k, the constant of variation.

y

=

k

×

1

x

⇒

y

=

k

x

To find k use the given condition that y = 8 when x = 4

8

=

k

4

⇒

k

=

4

×

8

=

32
