Answer:

c) inversely

Explanation:

In Mathematics an inverse relationship can be defined as a relationship between two variables, in which an increase in the value of one variable leads to a decrease in the value of the other variable i.e as the value of one variable becomes large, the value of the other variable becomes small.

Mathematically, an inverse relationship is given by the formula;

A = K/B

Where;

A and B are the variables.

K is the constant of proportionality.

Hence, if an increase in one quantity brings about a corresponding decrease in the other and vice versa, then the two quantities vary inversely.
