    If y varies directly with x, means that they can be modeled by a linear equation, lets choose a line with 0 y intercept, that is:

    y = mx + b

    y = mx

    where m is the slope of the line, now we plug in the data we have:

    y = mx

    20/3 = m (30)

    solving for m:

    m = (20/3) (1/30)

    m = 20/90

    m = 2/9

    so the line equation, or function modeling the y and x relationship is:

    y = (2/9) x
