Write the inverse variation equation
y varies inversely as twice x y = k / (2x)
Find k using x = 3, y = 6
6 = k / (2 × 3)
6 = k / 6
k = 36
Find y when x = 9
y = 36 / (2 × 9)
y = 36 / 18
y = 2

Write the inverse variation equation
y varies inversely with twice x y = k / (2x)
Find k using y = 8, x = 2
8 = k / (2 × 2)
8 = k / 4
k = 32
Find y when x = 8
y = 32 / (2 × 8)
y = 32 / 16
y = 2
Answer: y = 2
