Answer:

y = 225

Step-by-step explanation:

since y and x are directly proportional the equation relating them is

y = kx ← k is the constant of proportionality

to find k use the given condition y = 288 when x = 32

k = [tex]\frac{y}{x}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{288}{32}[/tex] = 9

y = 9x ← is the equation of proportionality

when x = 25, then

y = 9 × 25 = 225
