Answer:

none of the tables shown

Explanation:

Inverse variation is

xy = k where k is the constant

xy = 4

in the top table

-2*2 = -4 so it cannot be the first table

In the middle table

-2 * -8 = 16 so it is not the middle table

In the bottom table

-2 *4 = -8 so it is not the bottom table

There must be a table not shown
