Write three ordered pairs for direct variation relationship where y = 12 when x = 16

Ordered pairs that work for this direct variation are (4, 3), (8, 6) and (12, 9).

In order to find these, we must first find the value of the direct variation coefficient. We can do that using the base equation y = kx and then by plugging in to find k.

y = kx

12 = k (16)

3/4 = k

Now that we have k, we can model the equation as y = 3/4x. We can also find any number of ordered pairs by using the x value and finding the y value. All of the above answers work.
