Describe the variation 3xy = 5.

Ay varies inversely as the square of x.
By varies inversely as x.
Cy varies directly as x.
Dy varies directly as the square of x.

Verified Answer :

is B.y varies inversely as x.

Answer:

The answer is the option B

y varies inversely as x.

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent an inverse variation if it can be expressed in the form \(yx=k\) or \(y=k/x\)

In this problem we have

\(3xy=5\) -----> rewrite

\(xy=5/3\)

The value of k is equal to \(k=\frac{5}{3}\)

therefore

y varies inversely as x.
