Question

What is the constant of variation for the quadratic variation? 0.1y = 3x2

Answer 1

Answer:

The constant of variation for the given quadratic equation is, 30

Step-by-step explanation:

One of the form of a quadratic equation is written as:

$y = kx^2$     ....[1]

where k is the coefficient and for this case the constant of variation.

In order to obtain the answer for the given equation, we write the given equation to the form above.

$0.1y=3x^2$  or

$y=(\frac{3}{0.1})x^2$ or

$y=30x^2$

Comparing this equation with equation [1], to get the value of k;

k=30.

therefore, the  constant of variation is, 30.
