Simply distribute the -3 across the b and -7.
-3(b - 7) = (-3 * b) + (-3 * -7) = -3b + 21
Hope this was helpful, if it wasn't just drop me a DM explaining what didn't make sense.
Direct variation means that the line goes through the origin of the graph, so you know that the line must go through point (0,0). Using that along with the given point, you can find the slope of the line.
m =

m =

m =

m = 6
Now that you know the slope of the line you are looking for is 6, you can plug that into a point-slope form equation and find the equation of your line.
y - y_1 = m (x - x_1) Plug in either set of coordinate. I chose (3, 18).
y - 18 = 6 (x - 3) Use he Distributive Property
y - 18 = 6x - 18 Add 18 to both sides
y = 6x
The equation of a direct variation line that includes the point (3, 18) is
y = 6x.
Answer:
The only solution I see is for x=0
Step-by-step explanation:
y=8x+2
y=-8x+2
y=y so substitute:
8X+2=-8X+2
Subtract 2 from each side
8X=-8X
divide each side by 8
x=-x
The only solution I see is for x=0

Solve this problem by setting up a proportion to model the number of boys to the total number of students than the class:
80/100=20/x
Now, cross multiply:
80x=2000
Then, divide 2000 by 80 to solve for x:
x=25
25 is the total number students in the class.
Hope this help
