The equation to represent y varying directly with x is: y = kx, where k is the constant of proportionality.

We are given that when x = -3, y = 12. Substituting these values into the equation:

12 = k * -3
k = -4

Now that we have found the constant, we can find the value of y when x = 6:

y = -4 * 6
y = -24

Therefore, the value of y when x = 6 is -24.
