Answer:

The value of x is 221 when  k = 17 and  y = 13.

Therefore the Option (C) is correct .

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

x varies directly as y.

[tex]x\propto y[/tex]

x = ky

Where k is the constant of proportionality.

As given

x = 153 when y = 9

Put in the above

153 = 9k

[tex]k = \frac{153}{9}[/tex]

k = 17

Now Find out the value of x when k = 17 and  y = 13.

x = ky

x = 17 × 13

x = 221

The value of x is 221 when  k = 17 and  y = 13.

Therefore the Option (C) is correct .
