Variations

2012-10-28 10:07 pm
It is given that y^2 varies directly as (x-b), where y>0 and b is a constant. y=2 when x=3; y=4 when x=9. Find the value of b

✔ 最佳答案
y² ∝ x – b{Set a variable k}y² = k(x – b) {Substitute x, y}2² = k(3 – b) ⇒ k = 4/(3 – b) … (i)4² = k(9 – b) ⇒ k = 16/(9 – b) … (ii){Combine (i) & (ii)} 4/(3 – b) = 16/(9 – b) 4(9 – b) = 16(3 – b) 9 – b = 12 – 4b b = 1 I HOPE THIS CAN HELP YOU!~ ^_^

Yeah, k should be constant.

Let y^2 = k(x-b), where k is a variation constant.
[note: k should not be a variable. In another word, must be a constant]

when x=3, y=2
2^2 = k(3-b)
k(3-b) = 4 ... (1)

when x=9, y=4
4^2 = k(9-b)
k(9-b) = 16 ... (2)

(2)/(1):
(9-b)/(3-b) = 16/4
After solving,
b = 1
(k=2)
