Answer

$x~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~y=kx^n$ $2~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\frac{5}{2}$ $4~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\frac{5}{4}$ $6~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\frac{5}{6}$ $8~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\frac{5}{8}$ $10~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\frac{1}{2}$

Work Step by Step

$y=\frac{k}{x^n}$ $k=5$ and $n=1$ $y=\frac{5}{x}$ $x=2$: $y=\frac{5}{2}$ $x=4$: $y=\frac{5}{4}$ $x=6$: $y=\frac{5}{6}$ $x=8$: $y=\frac{5}{8}$ $x=10$: $y=\frac{5}{10}=\frac{1}{2}$
