Answer 1

Answer is b! Not quite sure how to explain it tho

Answer 2

b - read explanation if you are confused for future problems

Explanation:

Inverse variation is when x*y = k whereas direct variation (may come up in future problems) is when y = x*k

Remember that k is always a set value while x and y are values that can change

In this case y*x = k so k = 18 (since y is 9 when x is 2)

So when x = 8

8y = 18

y = 18/8 = 9/4
