Answer:y=4/3

y is directly proportional to x^2 is written as

y \alpha  {x}^{2} introducing a constant,

y=kx^2

but from the question, when y=2 , x=3 . putting it in the formula to get the value of k

2 =  {3}^{2}  \times k

2=9k . <em>divi</em><em>ding</em><em> </em><em>throu</em><em>gh</em><em> </em><em>by</em><em> </em><em>9</em><em> </em><em>to</em><em> </em><em>get</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>valu</em><em>e</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>k</em>

<em>\frac{2}{9}  =  \frac{9k}{9}</em>

<em>k =  \frac{2}{9}</em>

<em>pu</em><em>tting</em><em> </em><em>it</em><em> </em><em>in</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>ge</em><em>neral</em><em> </em><em>expres</em><em>sion</em>

<em>y =  \frac{2}{9} x</em>

<em>the</em><em> </em><em>valu</em><em>e</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>y</em><em> </em><em>whe</em><em>n</em><em> </em><em>x</em><em>=</em><em>6</em>

<em>y =  \frac{2}{9}  \times 6</em>

<em>y =  \frac{4}{3}</em>

<em>there</em><em>fore</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>valu</em><em>e</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>y</em><em> </em><em>when</em><em> </em><em>x</em><em>=</em><em>6</em><em> </em><em>is</em>

<em>4</em><em>/</em><em>3</em>

Determine whether the representation is proportional.y= -9x
valina [46]

Answer:

Yes it is

Step-by-step explanation:

y=-9x means that for every x value, the y value decreases by 9, so it is proportional because the value of y decreases the same amount each time. For example, if x=1, y=-9. If x=5, y=-45, and so on.
