The value of y given the inverse relationship is 5.

What is the value of y?

If two variables vary inversely, as one variable increases, the other decreases in value.

The equation that is used to represent inverse relationship is:

y = k/x

Where k is the constant of proportionality

k = yx

k = 4 x 15 = 60

y = 60 / 12

y = 5
