Answer:

Some few inverse variation formulae are given below.

Explanation:

If y varies inversely as x, then we can write the relation:


y \propto (1)/(x)

When we introduce the constant of proportionality we get:


y = (k)/(x)

Or


xy = k

The constant k is referred to as the constant of variation or constant of proportionality.

Similarly, if y varies inversely as the square of x, then the formula for y becomes:


y = \frac{k}{ {x}^(2) }

Also


y = (k)/( √(x) )

is also an inverse variation formula for y.

etc

I hope this explanation will help you answer the complete question.
