1) Answer: 21
As y varies directly with x, this means that the ratio y/x is always a constant.
In other words, the equation can be written as y = kx, where k is a constant term.
Thus,
y = 21
2) Answer: C
Exactly the same process as above.
Here's another method:
25 = k(140)
k = 25/140 = 5/28
Thus, when y = 36, 36 = kx
36 = 5/28(x)
36 * 28/5 = x; x = 201.6
3) 9 = k(12)
9/12 = k and k = 3/4
4) On the graph, it hits y = 1 at x = 4.
Thus, we can rewrite the equation as:
y = (1/4)x, where the constant term is 1/4
5) y = kx
The distance represents the x-ordinates, and the time represents the y-ordinates.
9.5/475 = 0.02
4 = 0.02(x), in hours.
x = 200 miles.

One pound is equivalent to 16 ounces.
Thus, multiply 14 pounds with 16 to get the number of ounces.
14 pounds equals 224 ounces. Let me know if you need any clarifications, thanks!
