Explanation:
#"the initial statement is "yprop1/x#
#"to convert to an equation multiply by k the constant of "#
#"variation"#
#rArry=kxx1/xrArry=k/x#
#"to find k use the given condition"#
#y=2" when "x=5#
#y=k/xrArrk=xy=5xx2=10#
#"equation is " color(red)(bar(ul(|color(white)(2/2)color(black)(y=10/x)color(white)(2/2)|)))#
