Answer:

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent an inverse variation if it can be expressed in the form

y*x=k or y= k/x

in this problem we have that

the value of the constant K is equal to 8

so

pv=8

Solve for V

v=8/p

Find the value of V for p=4

substitute the value of P in the formula

v=8/4=2

therefore

the answer is

the value of V is equal to 2
