Solution

To find the value of k k when y y is directly proportional to x x , we start with the given relationship:

y=kx y = kx

We are given that when x=12 x = 12 , y=360 y = 360 . We can substitute these values into the equation to solve for k k :

360=k12 360 = k \cdot 12

Next, we solve for k k by dividing both sides of the equation by 12:

k=36012 k = \frac{360}{12}

k=30 k = 30

So, the value of k k is 30.
