Algebra.Com's Answer #462689 by ramkikk66(644)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! y varies directly as the square of x. This means that the ratio of y to x^2 is a constant. Let us call it k. Mathematically,\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "y = 80 when x = 20. Substituting for y and x in the above equation,\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So when x = 90, \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Therefore, \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
