INVERSE VARIATION
EQUATION:
[tex]y = \frac{k}{x} [/tex]
––––––––
First, find the constant of variation k using the formula k=xy.
[tex]23 = \frac{k}{8} [/tex]
[tex]k = (8)(23)[/tex]
[tex]k = 184[/tex]
––––––––
Then, find y if x is equal to four using the formula y=184/x.
[tex]y = \frac{184}{x} [/tex]
[tex]y = \frac{184}{4} [/tex]
[tex]y = 46[/tex]
Final Answer:
y = 46
