y\(\alpha x\)
y=kx
where k is a constant of proportionality;
if y=4, x=12
4=12k
k=4/12
k=1/3
y=\(\frac{1}{3} x\)

The direct linear variation equation relationship statement is y varies directly with x. Therefore:

y α x

To change it to an equality, we insert k as the constant of proportionality.

y = kx

At y = 4,  x = 12

4 = k(12)
k = 1/3

Therefore, the equation is:

y = (1/3)x
