I don’t know- the first thing I would think is that x=15*y because 30=15*2

So that’s my thinking, which means that if x=5, then y=5/15 or 1/3 or as a decimal .33

However I’m not sure if that’s right- I hope it helps!

Given that the initial values of x and y varies inversely, the value of y when x=5 is 12.

What is Proportional relationships?

Proportional relationships are relationships between two variables where their ratios are equivalent.

For an inverse proportion;

x ∝ 1/y then, x = k/y

Where k is the constant.

Given that;

  • x = 30
  • y = 2
  • k = ?

We find k constant

x = k/y

30 = k/2

k = 60

Now, when x = 5 then y = ?

x = k/y

5 = 60/y

5y = 60

y = 60/5

y = 12

Therefore, Given that the initial values of x and y varies inversely, the value of y when x=5 is 12.
