Answer:

y = 5x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that y is directly proportional to x then the equation relating them is

y = kx ← k is the constant of proportionality

To find k use the condition that y = 30 when x = 6

k = [tex]\frac{y}{x}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{30}{6}[/tex] = 5

y = 5x ← equation of proportion
