inverse variation (noun) in vurs vehr ee ay shun
Definition: An inverse variation is a relationship between two quantities where one quantity increases as the other decreases.
Main Idea: “y varies inversely as x” means that when x increases, y decreases by the same factor.
Example: The amount of time a car travels increases as the car’s speed decreases. This relationship between time and speed is an inverse variation.
Nonexample: One ticket to a play costs $10. The total cost of the tickets increases as the number of tickets bought increases. The relationship between total cost and number of tickets is a direct variation, not an inverse variation.

Consider each of the following situations. Then underline the correct word to complete each sentence.
2. A student downloads several songs at $2 each.
As the number of downloaded songs The relationship between the number of downloaded increases, the total cost of the songs and the total cost of the downloads
downloads increases / decreases . represents a(n) direct / inverse variation.
3. The job of building a patio is split evenly among several workers.
As the number of workers on the job The relationship between the number of workers on
increases, the workload of each person the job and the workload of each person
increases / decreases . represents a(n) direct / inverse variation.

Key Concept Inverse Variation
335 Lesson 11-6
Writing an Equation Given a Point
Got It? Suppose y varies inversely with x, and y 5 9 when x 5 6. What is an equation for the inverse variation?
5. Complete the reasoning model below.
HSM11_A1MC_1106_T91408
Think Write
First I write the general form of an inverse variation.
To find the value of k, I substitute 6 for x and 9 for y.
Then I simplify to find k.
xy =
k=
=∙
6. An equation for the inverse variation is xy 5 .
Using Inverse Variation
Got It? The weight needed to balance a lever varies inversely with the distance from the fulcrum to the weight. A 120-lb weight is placed on a lever, 5 ft from the fulcrum. How far from the fulcrum should an 80-lb weight be placed to balance the lever?
7. Let x be the distance of the 80-lb weight from the fulcrum. Complete the diagram.

An equation of the form xy 5 k or y 5 kx , where k 2 0, is an inverse variation. The
constant of variation is k, which is the product x ? y for an ordered pair (x, y) that satisfies the inverse variation.
4. Cross out the equations that do NOT represent an inverse variation.
