Answer: The correct option is (B) 108.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to find the value of the following direct squared variation if x = 3 :


y=12x^2~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)

For finding the value of y at x = 3, we need to substitute x = 3 in the given direct squared variation (i).

So, from equation (i), we get


y\\\\=12x^2\\\\=12* 3^2\\\\=12*9\\\\=108.

Thus, the required value is 108.

Option (B) is CORRECT.
