From the statement of the problem, we know that:

0. y varies directly with x,

,

1. y = 6 when x = 3.

1) From point 1, we must have:


y=k\cdot x\text{.}

2) From point 2 we know that y = 6 when x = 3, replacing these data in the last equation, we have:


6=k\cdot3.

Solving for k, we get:


k=(6)/(3)=2.

3) The equation is:


y=2x\text{.}

Answer

• Equation: ,y = 2x

,

• Graph
