1. The problem states that $y$ is proportional to $x^2$, which means we can write the relation as:
$$y = kx^2$$
where $k$ is the constant of proportionality.
2. We are given that when $x=2$, $y=20$. Substitute these values into the equation to find $k$:
$$20 = k \times 2^2$$
$$20 = k \times 4$$
3. Solve for $k$:
$$k = \frac{20}{4}$$
$$k = 5$$
4. Now we have the relation between $x$ and $y$:
$$y = 5x^2$$
5. To find the value of $y$ when $x=1\frac{a}{b}3$, interpret $1\frac{a}{b}3$ as $1 + \frac{a}{b} + 3 = 4 + \frac{a}{b}$ (assuming the user means a mixed number plus 3). Since $a$ and $b$ are not specified, we keep it symbolic:
$$x = 4 + \frac{a}{b}$$
6. Substitute $x$ into the relation:
$$y = 5 \left(4 + \frac{a}{b}\right)^2$$
This is the value of $y$ in terms of $a$ and $b$ when $x=1\frac{a}{b}3$.
Final answers:
- Relation: $y = 5x^2$
- Value of $y$ at $x=4 + \frac{a}{b}$ is $y = 5 \left(4 + \frac{a}{b}\right)^2$
