Answer 6

I love this kind of math so yah I will help

Answer 7

kk

Answer 8

Take each value of x and square it (as this is a quadratic variation). Now take each value of y and divide it by the corresponding value of x^2. Do you see a pattern?

Answer 9

yes

Answer 10

okay now tell me what you think the answer is.

Answer 11

D

Answer 12

18

Answer 13

hmmmm look again

what numbers are common

Answer 19

Can you help with another one?

Answer 20

SO B would be your answer.

Answer 21

Variable y varies directly with x2, and y = 96 when x = 4.

What is the value of y when x = 2?

Answer 22

okay

Answer 23

sure

Answer 24

i agree @Ilovecake

Answer 25

:)

Answer 26

Do you have anymore? @Soniatonia

Answer 27

yeah

Answer 28

Variable y varies directly with x2, and y = 96 when x = 4.

What is the value of y when x = 2?

Answer 29

wait, nvm XD thanks for your help

Answer 30

Oh okay. Good luck

Answer 31

was happy to help xD

Answer 32

yeah. :)

Answer 33

Well I will show you how to o it anyway, here: if y = 96 when x = 4 and x gets split in halt and becomes 2, then split 96 in half to make 48. Easy! y = 48:
