Answer:
y = 16
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
y varies inversely with x i.e.
[tex]y=\dfrac{k}{x}[/tex]
Where
k is a constant of proportionality
Put y = 48 and x = 6 in the above equation to find k.
So,
[tex]k=48\times 6\\\\k=288[/tex]
Now put k = 288 and x = 18 in the above equation to find y.
[tex]y=\dfrac{288}{18}\\\\y=16[/tex]
So, the value of y is equal to 16 when x = 18.
