Answer:

see explanation

Explanation:

(8)

the equation of a circle centred at the origin is

x² + y² = r² ( r is the radius )

x² + y² = 49 ← is in this form

with r² = 49 ( take square root of both sides )

r =
√(49) = 7

(9)

given x is directly proportional to y then the equation relating them is

y = kx ← k is the constant of proportionality

to find k use the condition when x = 4 , y = 9 , then

9 = 4k ( divide both sides by 4 )


(9)/(4) = k = 2.25

Then

y = 2.25x ← equation for y in terms of x
