Question

dentify whether each table shows direct variation, inverse variation, or neither.

I cant draw table real well, but here goes.
1.                 2.                 3.              4.
x    y                  x    y            x   y            x   y
_________ _________ __________ ________

4    110         4      11       2    50        2     13
5    88           5      10      5    20        5    32.5
8     55         8       7       10   10       10     65

I think 2 is neither and 3 is inverse but clueless on 1 and 4.

Explanation / Answer

Column 1, 2 and 3 show an inverse variation. As x increases y decreases. Column 4 shows a direct variation. As x increases y increases too.
