    Section 1.10
    54 & 60

    Question 54

    The mathematical model is A = kr^2. I must now find k.

    A = kr^2

    9pi = k(3^2)

    9pi = 9k

    9pi/9 = k

    pi = k

    The constant of proportionality is pi.

    Question 60

    I found the mathematical model to be
    z = k[x^2/y].

    Let k = constant of proportionality.

    6 = k[(6^2)/4]

    6 = k[(36)/4]

    6 = 9k

    6/9 = k

    2/3 = k

    You say?
