Question

For the inverse variation equation p=8/V, what is the value when p=1/2

Answer 1

the value when p=1/2 is V = 12

Explanation:

For the inverse variation,

equation p=8/V, what is the value when p=1/2.

8 equals the constant of proportionality. This means that p is inversely proportional to V. As p increases in value, v increases in value and as p decreases in value, q increases in value. The value of both variable change in opposite direction

When p= 1/2,

1/2 = 8/V

Cross multiplying

V ×1= 2× 8

V = 16
