Moses Williams · Answer 1

option C. and D.

Step-by-step explanation:

For two quantities with inverse variation, as one quantity increases, the other quantity decreases. For example, when you travel to a particular location, as your speed increases, the time it takes to arrive at that location decreases. An inverse variation can be represented by the equation xy=k or y=kx.
