Answer: 16.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the equation that shows inverse variation between two quantities is given by :-

[tex]x_1y_1=x_2y_2[/tex]

We are given that x varies inversely as y, and x = 132 when y = 4

Then , to find the value of x when y= 32 , we have the following equation :-

[tex]x\times32=132\times4[/tex]

Now, divide 32 on both the sides , we get

[tex]x=\dfrac{132\times4}{32}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=16.5[/tex]

Hence, the value of x = 16.5
