The following numbers are in direct proportion. Fill in the missing ones and write an equation to show the relationship.
x =12 y=3
x= 8,y =
x = 16, y =
x = 20, y =5
x = 4,y =
y= 4x. OR x = y/4

Farmer Lulu is struggling with her maths homework. She needs to write an equation and an expression for the area of this shape. Can you help her?
Equation: Area = 6x squared + 10x + 4
Expression: 6x squared + 10x + 4
