Inverse Variation

Front

What is inverse variation?

Back

Inverse variation describes a relationship between two variables where the product of the variables is constant. If one variable increases, the other decreases.

What is the relationship between direct variation and inverse variation?

Back

In direct variation, as one variable increases, the other also increases. In inverse variation, as one variable increases, the other decreases.

How do you determine if a relationship is an inverse variation?

Back

Check if the product of the two variables remains constant for different values.

Front

What does it mean if y varies inversely with x?

Back

It means that as x increases, y decreases, and vice versa, maintaining a constant product.
