Answer

Therefore, our equation for the inverse variation is y=256/x or xy=256

Work Step by Step

Our equation for an inverse variation is y=k/x or xy=k. We will use the second form of the equation to solve for k. −32×−8=k 256=k So, k=256 Therefore, our equation for the inverse variation is y=256/x or xy=256
