Answer:
4. 250
5. 3
Step-by-step explanation:
If f(x) varies directly with x^2
f(x)= kx^2 where k is the constant of variation
f(x) =40 when x =2
40 = k(2)^2
40 = k(4)
Divide each side by 4
40/4 = k*4/4
10 =k
f(x) = 10x^2
Now we want to find f(5) which means x=5
f(5) = 10 *5^2
= 10(25)
= 250
5. If f(x) varies inversely with x
f(x) = k/x where k is the constant of variation
Multiply each side by x
f(x) *x = k
f(x) =6 when x =4
6*4 = k
24 = k
f(x) =24/x
We want to find f(x) when x=8
f(8) = 24/8
=3
Answer:
4) 250
5) 3
Step-by-step explanation:
4)
f(x) varies directly with x^2. So y = kx^2
When x = 2 , f(x) = x^2 = 2^2 = 4
but f(x) = 40 so k = 10. f(x) = kx^2 = 10 * 4 = 40
so when x = 5, f(5) = 10 * (5^2) = 10 (25) = 250
5)
f(x) varies inversely with x. When x = 4, f(x) = 6
y = k/x so k = xy
k = 4 * 6 = 24
so when x = 8, f(8) = 24/8 = 3
