Question
Does the table of values represent inverse variation?
Hint:
Mathematical relationship between two variables which can be expressed by an equation in which the product of two variables is equal to a constant.
The correct answer is: No
Here, we have to find if the values in the table represent an inverse variation.
We firstly Find the products, we get
xy: , , 2 , 72 , 450 , 2178
The products are not constant.
So, it is not an inverse variation.
The product of values of x and y in an inverse variation is always a constant.
