X = 2y + 5
(x + 2y + 5) - 10 = 22
(2y + 5 + 2y + 5) = 4y + 10
(4y + 10) - 10 = 22
4y = 22   y = 5.5
x = 2(5.5) + 5  x = 16
x = 16  y = 5.5

A direct variation function contains the points (–9, –3) and (–12, –4). Which equation represents the function?
Natasha_Volkova [10]
First, find the slope between the two points. 
Slope = y2-y1 / x2-x1
-4+3/ -12+9
-1/-3
1/3 is the slope of this equation. 
You do not have to go any further to find b or the y-intercept because it appears that b or the y-intercept is 0 in this case. 
y= 1/3x or in other words y= x/3
