proportional to the square of the velocity.

Answer 1

Answer:

Find the Constant of Variation y=5/8x

y

=

5

8

x

Combine

5

8

and

x

.

y

=

5

x

8

Since the equation can be written in the form

y

=

k

x

,

y

varies directly with

x

and

k

. The constant of variation,

k

, is

5

8

.
