The value of y is directly proportional to the value of x.

If y = 132 when x = 11, what is the value of y when x = 17?

• y = 144

• y = 12

• y = 204

• y = 71

The value of y varies directly with x. If x = 195 when y = 15, what is the value of x when y = 9?

• y = 1.44

• y = 117

• y = 12

• y = 135

Write an equation for this relationship.

• y = 4x
• y = 1/8x
• y = 1/4x
