Answer:

direct variation

Step-by-step explanation:

For direct variation k = [tex]\frac{y}{x}[/tex] ← k is the constant of variation

For inverse variation k = yx

Expressing the data as ordered pairs

(6, 9), (8, 12), (12, 18), (20, 30)

k = [tex]\frac{9}{6}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{12}{8}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{18}{12}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{30}{20}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] = 1.5 ← indicating direct variation

Equation is

y = kx = 1.5x
