Observe the given table and find which pair of variables (here x and y) are in inverse proportion.
ii)
Finding if x and y are in inverse proportion:
Two quantities x and y are said to vary in inverse proportion, if there exists a relation of the type xy = k between them, k being a constant
so, calculating xy for each case,
we have,
,
Clearly, xy is equal to a constant value 'k=6000',
Hence, x and y are inversely proportional.
