Find a Mathematical Model Representing the Statement $\frac { 3 } { 2 }$

question 187

Multiple Choice

Find a mathematical model representing the statement.(Determine the constant of proportionality.)
P varies directly as x and inversely as the square of y.(P = $\frac { 3 } { 2 }$ when x = 25 and y = 10.)

• A) \(P = \frac { x y ^ { 2 } } { 6 }\)
• B) \(P = \frac { 6 x } { y }\)
• C) \(P = \frac { 6 x } { y ^ { 2 } }\)
• D) \(P = \frac { 6 y ^ { 2 } } { x }\)
• E) \(P = 6 x y ^ { 2 }\)
