To find y, when x = 2

we set up another ratio y/2

By the definition both ratios are equal 12/-15 = y/2

Multiple to each side by 2.

12*2/-15 = 2y/2

8/-5 = y

y = -8/5

Lunna [17]
C) (0.85 + x/100)(250+145) does not give the correct answer.

Explanation
A) works; adding the two costs together is 250+145=395.  We multiply this by 0.85 because 100%-15%=85%=0.85.  We also have x% tax, which is represented by x/100, added to 100% of the value, or 1.00.  Altogether this gives us 
395(0.85)(1+x/100) = 395(0.85 + (0.85x/100)) = 395(0.85) + 395(0.85x/100)
= 395(0.85) + 395(0.0085x)
B) works; we have 250+145 for the original price; we have 85% = 0.85 of the value; we also have 100% + x%, which is (100+x)/100.
C) does not work; (0.85+x/100)(395) does not take into consideration that you are finding the tax after taking the 85%.  This will simplify out to
0.85*395 + (x/100)(395) = 335.75 + 395x/100 = 335.75 + 3.95x, which is too much.
D) works; simplifying the expression from A, we have 395(0.85) + 395(0.0085x) = 335.75 + 3.3575x.
