Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Given y varies directly as x, then the equation relating them is

y = kx ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition when x = 20, y = 12, then

12 = 20k ( divide both sides by 20 )

k = \frac{12}{20} = \frac{3}{5}

y = \frac{3}{5} x ← equation of variation

When x = 15, then

y = \frac{3}{5} × 15 = 9
