will take a min. multiple graph answers

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Variable y varies directly with x^2, and y = 48 when x = 4. Which graph represents the quadratic variation?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

We can graph it.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Plug in the numbers into the equation: \(y = kx^2\) \(48 = k(4^2)\) Simplify and solve

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4^2 = 16

OpenStudy (anonymous):

48/16 = 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but i have no idea how to graph it lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, so the constant is 3..so our equation is: \(y = 3x^2\) Here's the graph: https://www.desmos.com/calculator/es8mhfimbe

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So which one should be correct?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

theres 2 similar to it. A or C

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Look at the points on the graph I gave you see which one's are on the graph in the options.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

still confused :/

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a and c both match to me

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(this is what i get when they dont give me lessons :/)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Look at the graph I showed you it has points (1, 3) on it, and (-1, 3). Which graph has them on it? @Master_Chief_117

OpenStudy (anonymous):

....I just gave myself a hard facepalm...Its C. xD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

as soon as you said it i realized that xD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yep.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

let me pull the next lesson they didnt educate us on

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait...nvm...it was a yes no thing for the parent...(Which mine is passed away so i take over the account)
