If y=kx^n, that is If y varies
directly as x^n, then when
x is multiplied. If y=k/x^n,
that is y varies inversely as
x^n, and x is multiplied by
a non-zero constant c,
then y is divided by c^n by
c, y is multiplied by c^n

Theorem
If multiplying every x value of a
function by c results in
multiplying the corresponding y
values by c^n, then y varies
directly as the nth power of x,
that is y=k/x^n. If multipying
every x value of a function by c
results in dividing the
corresponding y values by c^n,
then y varies inversely as the nth
power of x, that is y
