Question

When an inverse relationship is graphed, the resulting line or curve is horizontal, vertical, upward-sloping or downward-sloping?

Answer 1

Downward sloping (going from the top left corner of the graph to the bottom right corner).

Answer 2

in general it will be downward sloping. when the y-axis is at 0, the x-axis will be high, as you move along (higher) the x-axis the y-axis values will decline.
The shape of the curve, will just depend on the order of the relationship, first order will be a straight line, second parabolic, etc
