Direct & Inverse Variation

y varies directly as x. If y=20 when x=4, find the constant of proportionality. 

• k=4
• k=1/4
• k=1/5
• k=5

Y is directly proportional to the square of z and inversely proportional to w and x

• y=kz^^2/wx
• y=k_z/wx
• y=wx/kx^2
• y=wx/kz

What kind of equation is this?
