Answer:

not direct variation

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for x and y in direct variation is

y = kx ← k is the constant of variation

y = [tex]\frac{5}{x}[/tex] is not in this form, thus not direct variation.

The equation for x and y varying inversely is

y = [tex]\frac{k}{x}[/tex] ← k is the constant of variation

y = [tex]\frac{5}{x}[/tex] is in this form and represents inverse variation
