Question

Variable y varies directly with x^2, and y = 72 when x = 6.

Enter the constant of variation for the quadratic variation equation.

y = ____ x^2

Answer 1

Answer 2

I think my answer is 2

Answer 3

you are looking for an equation
y=kx^2

you know that y = 72 when x = 6

so write
y=kx^2 using 72 for y, and 6 for x

Answer 4

y varies directly with x^2

y= k x^2 , where k is any constant

y=72; x=6
72 = k(6)^2
72 = 36 k
k = 2

The constant of variation is 2

Right?

Answer 5

correct
