Lets solve the equation step by step:

(x + a)/ax = b/x

therefore: a != 0, x !=0

now we solve:

<span>(x + a)/ax = b/x
</span><span>(x + a)/a = b
</span>x + a = ab
x = a(b - 1)

that is the solution for b, and we keep in mind that <span>a != 0, x !=0, the extraneous solutions

The answer is A because if we stare with (-1,3) and go up by 1x, since the slope is 2, then 3 + 2 is 5 and we have (0,5). Hope this helps!
