By finding the proportional relation between x and y, we will see that when x = 16, we have y = 32.
How to get the value of y when x = 16?
If y varies directly with x, then we can write the relation as:
y = k*x
Where k is the constant of proportionality.
First, we know that when x = 4, we have y = 8, replacing that we get:
8 = k*4
Solving for k, we get:
k = 8/4 = 2.
Then the relation between x and y is:
y = 2*x
When x = 16, we have:
y = 2*16 = 32
Then the correct option is a.
