Proportion and Variation
Express the statement as a formula that involves the given variables and a constant of proportionality $k,$ and then determine the value of $k$ from the given conditions. $z$ is directly proportional to the product of $x$ and the cube root of $y .$ If $x=2$ and $y=8,$ then $z=12$

Variation
suppose z varies jointly from x and y. Find the constant proportionality k if z = 1218 when y = 15 and x = 14 then using k, write the variation equation in terms of x and y what would z equal?
