Answer:

 [tex]\frac{18}{5}[/tex] (11)

Step-by-step explanation:

If it varies directly, you need to find k, the constant of proportionality.

This is done by plugging the values in for x & y that are known.

y = kx

18 = k(5)

[tex]\frac{18}{5}[/tex] = k

Now solve for y  when x is 11.

y = [tex]\frac{18}{5}[/tex] (11)

y = 39.6
