1.6.3 Quiz: Inverse Variation Question 2 of 10 According to the graph, what is the value of the constant in the equation below? Constant 50 Height = Width O A. 30 B. 15 C. 72 D. 60 Height (2,30) (5,12) P (10,6) (30,2) 25 Width 50​



Answer :

To find the value of the constant in the equation for inverse variation, we can use the formula \(xy = k\), where \(k\) is the constant of variation.

Using the given points (Height, Width), we can calculate \(k\) by choosing any pair of points. Let's use the point (2, 30):

\(Height \times Width = k\)

\(2 \times 30 = k\)

\(k = 60\)

So, the value of the constant (\(k\)) in the equation is 60. Therefore, the answer is option D.
