Question

Find the constant of variation for the quadratic variation. (please help fast I need to turn it in)
x=2,3,4,5,6
y=24,54,96,150,216

a=12
b=6
c=30
d=18

Answer 1

if you have quadratic variation, then \(y = kx^2\) where \(k\) is the constant of variation.

\[24=k(2)^2\]\[k=\]\[54=k(3)^2\]\[k=\]\[96=k(4)^2\]\[k=\]etc.
