Find the constant of variation for the relation and use it to write an equation for the statement. Then solve the equation. If y varies as directly as the square of x, and y = 75/8 when x = 5, find y when x= 2

y=15/4

Step-by-step explanation:

start with general form y = kx. substitute in the pair of values you know for x and y.

75/8 = k(5) multiply both sides by 1/5 to solve for k, getting

15/8 = k

So your equation is y = (15/8)x substitute 2 for x to find your new y.

y = (15/8)2

y = 15/4

you forgot the options, but i found them anyways, the correct answer is "john wilson believes that words and actions based on the intellect are superior to those based on emotions".

john wilson is depicted as an extremely intelligent man. the point of the excerpt is to make a sort of distinction between emotional and rational intelligence. he happens to have both attributes, but he clearly favors his intellectual gifts. at the same time, because of his religious background, he's a little bit conflicted with this and it makes him ashamed.

hope this !
