If y varies directly as √n and y = 4 when n = 4, find y when n = 1(7/9)

A.

√17

B.

4/3

C.

8/3

D.

2/3

Correct Answer: 8/3

Explanation

y ∝√n y = k√n when y = 4, n = 4 4 = k√4 4 = 2k k = 2 Therefore, y = 2√n y = 2√(16/9) y = 2(4/3) y = 8/3

y ∝√n y = k√n when y = 4, n = 4 4 = k√4 4 = 2k k = 2 Therefore, y = 2√n y = 2√(16/9) y = 2(4/3) y = 8/3
