Suppose y varies inversely with x, and y = 9 when x = 85.

Write an equation for the inverse variation.

xy = k Use the general form for an inverse variation.

(8)(9) = k Substitute 8 for x and 9 for y.

72 = k Multiply to solve for k.

xy = 72 Write an equation. Substitute 72 for k in xy = k.

The equation of the inverse variation is xy = 72 or y = .72x

The points (5, 6) and (3, y) are two points on the graph of an

inverse variation. Find the missing value.

x1 • y1 = x2 • y2 Use the equation x1 • y1 = x2 • y2 since you know coordinates, but not the constant of variation.

5(6) = 3y2 Substitute 5 for x1, 6 for y1, and 3 for x2.

30 = 3y2 Simplify.

10 = y2 Solve for y2.

The missing value is 10. The point (3, 10) is on the graph of the inverse variation that includes the point (5, 6).

Jeff weighs 130 pounds and is 5 ft from the lever’s fulcrum. If

Tracy weighs 93 pounds, how far from the fulcrum should she sit in

order to balance the lever?

Relate: A weight of 130 lb is 5 ft from the fulcrum.A weight of 93 lb is x ft from the fulcrum.Weight and distance vary inversely.

Define: Let weight1 = 130 lbLet weight2 = 93 lbLet distance1 = 5 ftLet distance2 = x ft

a. The values of y seem to vary inversely with the values of x.

Check each product xy.

xy: 3(10) = 30 5(6) = 30 10(3) = 30

The product of xy is the same for all pairs of data.

So, this is an inverse variation, and k = 30.

The equation is xy = 30.

Explain whether each situation represents a direct variation

or an inverse variation.

b. The cost of a $25 birthday present is split among several friends.

Since the total cost is a constant product of $25, this is an inverse variation.

The cost per souvenir times the number of souvenirs equals the total cost of the souvenirs.

Since the ratio is constant at $10 each, this is a direct variation. cost souvenirs

The cost per person times the number of people equals the total cost of the gift.

a. You buy several souvenirs for $10 each.
