Answer:

The output value will be multiplied by 5.

Explanation:

The equation for inverse variation is given by :-


k=yx

OR


y=(k)/(x), where x is representing input values and y representing output values.

If input value is divided by 5 (i.e.
x_1=(x)/(5)), then the above equation will be


y_1=(k)/((x)/(5))\\\\\Rightarrow y_1=5((k)/(x))\\\\\Rightarrow y_1=5y

Thus, when the function's input value is divided by 5 then the output value will be multiplied by 5.
