Question 1182903: If y is directly proportional to the 3/2 power of x and inversely proportional to w, and y is 290 when x is 861 and w is 352, evaluate the constant of proportionality, and write the complete equation for y in terms of x and w. Give your answer in the form y=k*(x^a)*(w^b) with no spaces where a, b and k are real numbers. Round the coefficient k to 2 decimal places. Answer by ankor@dixie-net.com(22740) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! If y is directly proportional to the 3/2 power of x and inversely proportional to w, that's ^(3/2)
y is 290 when x is 861 and w is 352, evaluate the constant of proportionality, = 290
Multiply both sides by 352, find 861 to the 3/2 power
k = 4.04
