Math question

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

Ok, what "y varies jointly as x and cube root of z" means is: \(\large\color{black}{ \displaystyle y=k\times x\times \sqrt[3]{z} }\)

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

\(\large\color{black}{ \displaystyle 120=k\times 3\times \sqrt[3]{8} }\) \(\large\color{black}{ \displaystyle 120=k\times 6 }\) \(\large\color{black}{ \displaystyle 20=k }\)

OpenStudy (vera_ewing):

Thanks, yes. I got it :)

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

that is not it

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

You have found k=20. \(\large\color{black}{ \displaystyle y=20\times x\times \sqrt[3]{z} }\)

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

now, you need to find y, when x=4 and z=27.

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

plug in for \(x\) and for \(z\) and calculate the \(y\).
