The document discusses the inverse proportionality between two positive numerical values, x and y, from experimental data. It raises a question about which plot would likely exhibit a linear relationship among several given options. The options include plots for x against 1/y, log(y) against x, y against log(x), and e against x.

1. Y is known to be inversely proportional to X, where X and Y are positive numerical values
drawn from a series of experiment. Which of the following plots is most likely to show a linear
relationship between the variables? X against 1/Y log(Y) against X Y against log(X) e against X
(where e is the exponential constant
