Vocabulary inverse variation
A relationship that can be written in the form y = , where k is a nonzero constant and x ≠ 0, is an inverse variation. The constant k is the constant of variation. Multiplying both sides of y = by x gives xy = k. So, for any inverse variation, the product of x and y is a nonzero constant.
There are two methods to determine whether a relationship between data is an inverse variation. You can write a function rule in y = form, or you can check whether xy is a constant for each ordered pair.
Can write in y = form. Additional Example 1A: Identifying an Inverse Variation Tell whether the relationship is an inverse variation. Explain. Method 1 Write a function rule. The relationship is an inverse variation. Method 2 Find xy for each ordered pair. 1(30) = 30, 2(15) = 30, 3(10) = 30 The product xy is constant, so the relationship is an inverse variation.
Cannot write in y = form. Additional Example 1B: Identifying an Inverse Variation Tell whether the relationship is an inverse variation. Explain. Method 1 Write a function rule. y = 5x The relationship is not an inverse variation. Method 2 Find xy for each ordered pair. 1(5) = 5, 2(10) = 20, 4(20) = 80 The product xy is not constant, so the relationship is not an inverse variation.
xy equals the constant 14, so the relationship is an inverse variation. The equation can be written in the form y = Additional Example 1C: Identifying an Inverse Variation Tell whether the relationship is an inverse variation. Explain. 2xy = 28 Find xy. Since xy is multiplied by 2, divide both sides by 2 to undo the multiplication. xy = 14 Simplify.
Cannot write in y = form. Check It Out! Example 1a Tell whether each relationship is an inverse variation. Explain. Method 1 Write a function rule. y = –2x The relationship is not an inverse variation. Method 2 Find xy for each ordered pair. –12(24) = –228, 1(–2) = –2, 8(–16) = –128 The product xy is not constant, so the relationship is not an inverse variation.
Can write in y = form. Check It Out! Example 1b Tell whether each relationship is an inverse variation. Explain. Method 1 Write a function rule. The relationship is an inverse variation. Method 2 Find xy for each ordered pair. 3(3) = 9, 9(1) = 9, 18(0.5) = 9 The product xy is constant, so the relationship is an inverse variation.
Cannot write in y = form. Check It Out! Example 1c Tell whether each relationship is an inverse variation. Explain. 2x + y = 10 The relationship is not an inverse variation.
Helpful Hint Since k is a nonzero constant, xy ≠ 0. Therefore, neither x nor y can equal 0, and the graph will not intercept the x- or y-axes.
An inverse variation can also be identified by its graph. Some inverse variation graphs are shown. Notice that each graph has two parts that are not connected. Also notice that none of the graphs contain (0, 0). In other words, (0, 0) can never be a solution of an inverse variation equation.

Additional Example 5: Physical Science Application Boyle’s law states that the pressure of a quantity of gas x varies inversely as the volume of the gas y. The volume of gas inside a container is 400 in3 and the pressure is 25 psi. What is the pressure when the volume is compressed to 125 in3? Use the Product Rule for Inverse Variation. Substitute 400 for x1, 125 for x2, and 25 for y1. (400)(25) = (125)y2 Simplify. Solve for y2 by dividing both sides by 125.
