..
x=16,y=32
plug the value
...
...
32=4k
/4
k=32/4
k=8
...
x=50, k= 8
y =56.56

Hi
*Note: When Quantities vary directly,they are related by the relationship:
In general: k being the constant of proportionality.
y varies directly as the square root of x
y=32 when x=16
32 = k*4
8 = k
What is y when x=50
