In an inverse relationship, when one variable increases, the other blank

Decreases

Explanation:

Given the relationship: a=k/b where k is a constant and a and b are variables,  we can now evaluate the relationship.

Increasing a means that b has to reduce for the relationship to stand.

Lets say, a=2 b= o.5 and k =1

These values satisfy the argument.

When we increase a to 4, then we get:

4=1/b

our new b will be= 1/4 or o.25

Thus an increase in one variable leads to a decrease in in the other variable.

your answer is c! hope this : )
