Suppose y varies inversely with x. Write an equation if y=7 when x=-4

y = -28 ÷ x

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard format of a inversely proportional equation goes by the format of y = k ÷ x. The question asks us to write an equation if y = 7 when x = -4 and y varies inversely with x.

So we substitute the values y = 7 and x = -4 in the equation y = k ÷ x

K = constant, we have to work this out

7 = k ÷ -4

7 × - 4 = k

k = - 4 × 7

k = -28

k = -28 So then we put this back into the original y = k ÷ x to find our final equation which is y = -28 ÷ x
