To determine the constant (k) in the inverse variation, we can observe the relationship between x and y in the given table.

In inverse variation, the equation is of the form xy = k, where k represents the constant of variation.

By examining the table, we can see that as x increases, y decreases. This suggests an inverse relationship between x and y.
For the first pair (x = 1, y = 48):
1 * 48 = 48

For the second pair (x = 2, y = 24):
2 * 24 = 48

For the third pair ...
