Answer:

f(x)=-x/3

Step-by-step explanation

Given f is a direct variation equation (Direct variation is when one variable is equal to a constant times another variable, with no additions or subtractions alongside).

Now by the above condition let the constant be "c".Then

f(x)=cx

also given that f(x)=-2 whenx=6

on substituting the above values,

-2=c(6)

c=-2/6

c=-1/3

Therefore our equation is f(x)=-x/3
