Answer:

y = [tex]\frac{1}{x}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that y varies inversely with x then the equation relating them is

y = [tex]\frac{k}{x}[/tex] ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition y = 3 when x = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] , then

3 = [tex]\frac{k}{\frac{1}{3} }[/tex] ( multiply both sides by [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] )

3 × [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] = k

1 = k

y = [tex]\frac{1}{x}[/tex] ← equation of variation
