wouldn't my formula be p=KA/N^2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
567/2 is 283.5 not 284
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ohh i got it. it would be 567/2 !
OpenStudy (nurali):
There is one "directly" variable, A
There is one "inversely" variable, N²
Substituting
A
P = k·----
N²
Substituting the complete set of data,
where ALL the variables are given:
P=7, N=9, A=2
2
7 = k·----
9²
Solve for k
2
7 = k·---
81
7*81 = k·2
567 = 2k
k=567/2
