the answer is y=3x witch means that for every can there is 3 teniss balls

Answer:

y = 3x,

Where, x = number of cans,

y = number of balls.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the we consider the number of balls per can,

Number of balls ∝ number of can,

If x represents the number of cans and y represents the number of balls,

⇒ y ∝ x

⇒ y = kx

Where,

k = constant of proportionality,

if x = 3, y = 9

[tex]9=k(3)\implies k = \frac{9}{3}=3[/tex]

Thus, the required equation that shows the given relation would be,

y = 3x
