Answer:

  A) 504

  B) 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement of proportionality can be written as the equation ...

  m = kr²

Then we can find k from ...

  k = m/r² = 14/2² = 7/2

That is, ...

  m = (7/2)r²

__

Using this relation, we can find m for r=12:

  m = (7/2)·12² = 7·72

  m = 504 . . . for r = 12

__

And, we can use the same equation to solve for r when m=224.

  224 = 7/2·r²

  r² = 64

  r = √64

  r = 8 . . . for m = 224
