Angle Y would be 40 degrees
So, this question is basically asking us "If we had an x instead of a 2, would this be true?" We can try and see what we get:

So, if we want to show this we have to change the numerator or denominator in such a way that we can cancel some common factors. Notice that 
If we replace the factored numerator with the original one, we get:

Since we have an equality, this relation is proved.
Answer:x=3/9
Step-by-step explanation:
X directly proportional to Y
X=ky
Make k the subject of formula
k=x/y
K=27/81
Divided by 9
K=3/9
