Help solve the problem pls

Answer 1

x = 2

Explanation:

Inverse variation between x and y can be represented as:

xy = k

Where k is the constant of proportionality.

If x = 1 when y = 11, the constant of proportionality, k, would be:

1*11 = k

k = 11

To find x when y = 5.5, substitute y = 5.5 and k = 11 into xy = k

Thus:

x*5.5 = 11

Divide both sides by 5.5

x = 11/5.5

x = 2
