Answer:

  • y = -6/x

Step-by-step explanation:

Inverse variation equation:

  • y = k/x, where k - coefficient

We have:

  • x = 6, y = -1

Work out the value of k by substituting the values of x and y:

  • -1 = k / 6
  • k = -1*6
  • k = -6

The equation is:

  • y = -6/x

Answer:

y = -6/x

Step-by-step explanation:

y varies inversely as x

So, y = k/x, where k is the constant of proportionality.

If y = -1 when x = 6,

Then, -1 = k/6 ===> k = -6

Therefore, y = -6/x
