Constant of Inverse Proportionality

The Constant of Inverse Proportionality calculator computes the constant of inverse proportionality based on the two related values (x and y).

INSTRUCTIONS: Enter the following:

• (y)  This is the dependent value (aka range)
• (x)  This is the independent value (aka domain)

Constant of Inverse Proportionality (k): The calculator returns the inverse proportional value.

The Math / Science

If two values (x and y) are inversely proportionally related, one can express their relationship in the formula:

         `y = k/x`

where:

• y = the dependent value or range
• x = the independent value or domain
• k = the  constant of inverse proportionality

To find the constant of proportionality, one multiplies both sides of the equation by x and gets:

   `y*x = k`
