Direct Proportion functions look like this:
y=kx
'k' is the constant of proportionality and in this case its 7.5 or 15/2.
--------------------------------------------
When x=1, y=7.5
When x=2, y=15
When x=3, y=22.5
Therefore y is directly proportional to x.

DIRECT PROPORTION EXPLAINED:
Say a football costs £7.50. If you buy one football you'll have to pay out £7.50, but if you you buy two footballs you'll have to pay out £15.00. Therefore the cost of the football(s) is directly proportional to the amount of footballs you buy. C=cost, f=football(s) and C<span>∝f, therefore C=kf, but as k=7.5, C=7.5f.
INVERSE PROPORTION EXPLAINED:
If it were to take 8 hours for one bricklayer to set up a wall, how long would it take for two bricklayers to set up a wall? The answer in this case would be 4 hours.
T=time to set up a wall
b=bricklayer(s)
Therefore T</span><span>∝1/b, and T=k/b. In this case k=8 so T=8/b.
When b=1, T=8.
When b=2, T=4.
We'd say that the time it would take for bricklayers to set up a wall would be inversely proportional to the amount of bricklayers available.</span>
we know that
in expanded form is equal to

therefore
<u>the answer is</u>

Explanation
As you can see all the possible answers have the same form:

By looking at the picture you'll notice that the graph of g(x) has to pass through the point (2,1). Remember that the points in the graph of g(x) have the form (x,g(x)). Since (2,1) is part of the graph of g(x) then we have the following:

So let's evaluate the expression for g(x) that we wrote before at x=2. This way we'll obtain an equation for the number a:

Then we can divide both sides by 4:

Then we get:

Answer
Then the answer is option A.
