Answer:

y = [tex]\frac{63}{x}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Since y is inversely proportional to x the equation relating them is

y = [tex]\frac{k}{x}[/tex] ← k is the constant of proportionality

To find k use the condition when y = 7, x = 9

k = yx = 7 × 9 = 63

y = [tex]\frac{63}{x}[/tex] ← equation connecting x and y
