Answer: The correct option is (C) y = 4x.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to identify the function in which y varies directly with x.

We know that

if y varies directly as x, then we write as follows :


y\propto x\\\\\Rightarrow y=k* x~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~[\textup{where k is the constant of proportionality}]\\\\\Rightarrow y=kx~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)

Out of the given options, equation (i) matches with the third option y = 4x, for k = 4.

Therefore, the correct option is (C) y = 4x.
