Answer:

The function can be represented by the pair of the values of x and y.

Explanation:

In a function, y varies inversely with x means, with the increasing value of x, y will be decreasing. The function's variation constant is 4.

Hence, the relation between x any y can be represented as
y = (4)/(x).

Lets put some random values instead of x and see what we will get in the place of y.

If x = 1, y = 4.

If x = 2, y = 2.

If x = -1, y = -4.

If x = -2, y = -2.

If x = 4, y = 1.

If x = -4, y = -1.
