If someone can help explaining how to correctly set up joint variation equation, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Write an equation describing the relationship of the given variables.
\n" ); document.write( "y varies jointly as x and the square root of z and when x = 8 and z = 49,then y = 840.
\n" ); document.write( "y = kx*\"sqrt%28z%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "8k*\"sqrt%2849%29\" = 840
\n" ); document.write( "8k * 7 = 840
\n" ); document.write( "56k = 840
\n" ); document.write( "k = 840/56
\n" ); document.write( "k = 15
\n" ); document.write( "the equation
\n" ); document.write( "\"y+=+15x%2Asqrt%28z%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "
