Q. Assume that yy varies inversely with xx. If y=1y = 1 when x=−9x = -9, find yy when x=−3x = -3. \newlineWrite and solve an inverse variation equation to find the answer.\newliney=y = _____
  1. Write Inverse Variation Equation: Now we have kk, let's write the inverse variation equation.y=kxy = \frac{k}{x}y=–9xy = \frac{–9}{x}
  2. Find yy for x=−3x = -3: We need to find yy when x=−3x = -3.\newliney=−9/(−3)y = -9 / (-3)\newliney=3y = 3
