Find an Equation of Variation for the Given Situation $x = \frac { 1 } { 3 }$

question 87

Short Answer

Find an equation of variation for the given situation.
- y varies inversely as x and y=6 when $x = \frac { 1 } { 3 }$
A) $y = \frac { - 1 } { x }$
в) $y = \frac { 5 } { x }$
C) $y = \frac { 2 } { x }$
D) $y = \frac { 3 } { x }$

• A) \(y = \frac { - 1 } { x }\)
• в) \(y = \frac { 5 } { x }\)
• C) \(y = \frac { 2 } { x }\)
• D) \(y = \frac { 3 } { x }\)

Regression Toward the Mean

The statistical phenomenon that high or low scores naturally tend to move closer to the average over time.

Extreme Scores

Values in a data set that are significantly higher or lower than the majority of the other scores, potentially skewing results.
