Answer:


m=27

Explanation:

When something is directly proportional, it means that:
a=kb, where
k is some constant (number).

We are given that
m is directly proportional to
n^2, and
m=75 when
n=5.

So, we have...


a=kb


m=kn^2


75=k(5)^2


75=25k


k=3

So the full equation is:


m=3n^2

Now, to find the answer when
n=3, simply put 3 into the equation.

Which gives:


m=3(3)^2
m=9(3)
m=27

Final answer: m=27.
