If x = 40 and y = 20, then x and y are: 
a) Directly Proportional 
b) Inversely Proportional
c) Neither directly and inversely proportional
d) Cannot be determined 

Dear Student. 

The correct answer is (d) cannot be determined because with the given values we can only find the ratio x:y which is 2:1. This doesn't give us any idea whether 'x' and 'y' will be directly proportional or inversely.

We hope that this answer solves your query.
Regards.
