Does this equation y=87.2/x represent a direct or inverse variation?

Inverse relationship

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation we are looking at is;

y = 87.2/x

which implies xy = 87.2

If it was a direct relationship

y = constant * x

if it was inverse, it would have been

y * x = constant

since 87.2 is a constant, the question looks exactly like the second scenario.

This means that what we have is an inverse relationship

because linear equations are a lot simpler than quadratics equations, and linear equations formula is a lot easier to memorize. that's why i think they're harder.
