Explanation:

Y varies directly as cube root of x is written as

y = k³√x

where k is the constant of proportionality

A).

when y = 3

x = 27

We have


3 = k \sqrt[3]{27}

But ³√27 = 3

That's

3 = 3k

Divide both sides by 3

k = 1

The value of the constant is 1

B).

The value of the relationship is


y = \sqrt[3]{x}

C).

When x = 8

We have


y = \sqrt[3]{8}

y = 2

Hope this helps you
