Question

Find the constant of variation when t varies directly as the square of s, and t = 64 when S = 4.

Answer 1

Answer:

The constant of variation is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

We are looking for the constant of variation when t varies directly as the square of s

t = k s^2  where k is the constant of variation

t = 64 and s = 4

64 = k  4^2

64 = k * 16

Divide each side by 16

64/16 = k * 16/16

4 = k

The constant of variation is 4
