Answer:

d. 36

Explanation:

You want to know the value of y for x=3 when y=24 and x=2, and the variation is direct.

Direct variation

Direct variation means the ratio of y to x is the same for any x and y.

y/x = 24/2 = b/3

b = 3(24/2) = 3(12) = 36

The value of b is 36.

Answer:

b is 36

Explanation:

The relationship between x and y with the first data point (2,24) is 1/12. That is, x is 1/12 of y. Or we can say y = 12x. The second point has x = 3. If the same proportionality holds, then b would be 12*3 or 36.
