Answer:

y = -2x

Step-by-step explanation:

For direct variation:  y = kx, where k is the constant of proportionality.

Given that Y equals -12 when x equals 6, we have -12 = k(6).  Solve this for k by dividing both sides by 6:

k = -12/6 => k = -2

Then the "direct variation equation" here is y = -2x.
