Answer:

p = 304

Step-by-step explanation:

Given p is inversely proportional to q² then the equation relating them is

p = [tex]\frac{k}{q^2}[/tex] ← k is the constant of proportion

To find k use the condition p = 19 when q is 8, then

19 = [tex]\frac{k}{8^2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{k}{64}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by 64 )

k = 1216

p = [tex]\frac{1216}{q^2}[/tex] ← equation of proportion

When q = 2, then

p = [tex]\frac{1216}{2^2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1216}{4}[/tex] = 304

The value of p is equal to 304 when q is equal to 2

Given :

If p is inversely proportional to the square of q

when y is inversely proportional to x then [tex]y=\frac{k}{x}[/tex]

given that p is inversely proportional to the square of q. the equation becomes

[tex]p=\frac{k}{q^2}[/tex]

when p is 19 the value of q is 8

Replace the values and find out k

[tex]p=\frac{k}{q^2}\\19=\frac{k}{8^2}\\19=\frac{k}{64}\\[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 64

k=1216

Now we find out p when q is 2

Replace k value and q value to find out p

[tex]p=\frac{k}{q^2} \\\\p=\frac{1216}{2^2} \\p=304[/tex]

The value of p is equal to 304 when q is equal to 2
