Answer:

x = 14 - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

*The key word 'less than' means to subtract.

x + 3 = 14 is incorrect. Kiran isn't adding weight to his backpack.

In other words, the backpack didn't increase in pounds.

3(x) = 14 is incorrect. Multiplying is irrelevant to this problem, it's not saying Kiran's backpack is 3 times a number equal to Clare's backpack weight.

x = 143 is incorrect. This equation is unrealistic.

x = 14 - 3 is correct. This equation is explaining that Kiran's backpack is 3 pounds less than Clare's backpack (14)

Answer:

If two variables are directly proportional, it means that an increase in the value of one variable would cause a corresponding increase in the other variable. If they are inversely proportional, an increase in the value of one variable would cause a corresponding decrease in the other variable.

Looking at the given values, as x is increasing, y is also increasing. The constant of proportionality is

9/3 = 27/9 = 3

Therefore, the relationship is a direct variation and the function to model it is

y = 3x
