The inverse proportionality expression is y =40/x

Inverse proportion

If the variable y is inversely proportional to x, this is expressed as;

y = k/x

where

k is the constant of proportionality

If y = 5 and x = 8. then;

5 = k/8

k = 5 * 8

k = 40

Determine the inverse proportionality

Recall that y = k/x

y = 40/x

Hence the inverse proportionality expression is y =40/x
