Question

What is the constant of the variation for the inverse variation?

Answer 1

3

Explanation:

Answer 2

2nd possible answer is the correct one; the const. of var. is 1/3.

Explanation:

xy = 1/3 can be rewritten in inverse variation format: Divide both sides by x to isolate y. Then y = (1/3)(1/x). The constant of (inverse) variation is 1/3.
