Answer:

The answer is

[tex]y = \frac{8}{x} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The above variation is written as

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

Where k is the constant of variation

y = 16 x = 1/2

[tex]k = yx \\ k = 16 \times \frac{1}{2} \\ k = 8[/tex]

So the expression for y in terms of x is

[tex]y = \frac{8}{x} [/tex]

Hope this helps you.
