    Identify the variables as number of guests, x, to the number of bouncy balls, y. The ratio, 9:3, can be simplified to 3:1 resulting in the constant of variation of 3. The equation y = 3x is used to substitute the 30 guests in for x, y = 3 (30), y = 90, so she needs 90 bouncy balls for 30 guests.
