Respuesta :

The formula for an inverse proportion, knowing that its graph goes through the point: C(-25, -0.2) is y=5/x.

What is inversely proportional relationship?

Let m and n are two variables.

Then m and n are said to be inversely proportional to each other if

[tex]m = \dfrac{c}{n} \\\\ \text{or} \\\\ n = \dfrac{c}{m}[/tex]

(both are equal)

where c is a constant number called constant of proportionality.

This inversely proportional relationship is denoted by

[tex]m \propto \dfrac{1}{n} \\\\ \text{or} \\\\n \propto \dfrac{1}{m}[/tex]

As visible, increasing one variable will decrease the other variable if both are inversely proportional.

The formula for the inverse function is given as,

[tex]y=\dfrac{c}{x}[/tex]

Here, c is constant.

The graph goes through the point: C(-25, -0.2). For the inverse function.

[tex]-25\propto\dfrac{1}{-0.2}\\-25=\dfrac{c}{-0.2}\\c=-25\times-0.2\\c=5[/tex]

Put the value in the above function,

[tex]y=\dfrac{5}{x}[/tex]

This is the required function.

Hence, the formula for an inverse proportion, knowing that its graph goes through the point: C(-25, -0.2) is y=5/x.
