Does the data in the table represent a direct variation or inverse variation? Write an equation to model the data in the table.

(Making my own table)

(x) 2 l 4 l 8 l 12 l
____________
(y) 10 l 5 l 5/2 l 5/3

A: Direct Variation; y=20x

B: inverse Variation; xy= 20

C: inverse variation; y/x= 20

D: Direct Variation; y= 20/x

2*10 =20

4*5 =20

8 *5/2 = 20

answer is B inverse variation, xy = 20

Answer: B: inverse Variation; xy= 20

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given table, it can be seen that when the values of x is increasing then the values of y decreasing .

Therefore, it is clear that there is inverse variation between x and y.

Also, the equation of inverse variation is given by :-

[tex]xy=k[/tex]

For x=2 and y=10, we have  :

[tex]k=2\times10=20[/tex]

Now, the equation of inverse variation with k =20 will be :

[tex]xy=20[/tex]
