Here is the problem:
f varies jointly as h and the square of q, and f = 36 when q = 2 and h = 3. Find k. Answer by Edwin McCravy(20054) (Show Source):

Here is the problem:
f varies jointly as h and the square of q, and f = 36 when q = 2 and h = 3. Find k.
For all such problems, start with this:
Varying "directly" or product of "jointlys" or 1 if none
quantity = k * ----------------------------------------------------------
inversely variable or product of "inverselys" or 1 if none
In this problem the varying quantity is f.
there are no "directly"s or "inverselys", so we have
the product of the jointlys on top and 1 on the bottom:
>>...f = 36 when q = 2 and h = 3...<<
Substitute these values:
