= 2a - 1
2(
) = 2(2a - 1) <em>multiplied both sides by 2 </em>
ab = 4a - 2 <em>distributed the 2 on the right side</em>
ab - 4a = -2 <em>subtracted 4a from both sides</em>
a(b - 4) = -2 factored out "a" from the left side
a =
<em>divided (b - 4) on both sides</em>
Answer: a =

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
C. y +3 = x +3
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find in below option x has direct variation with y.
We solve for each;
A. 
From above equation we can state that 2 times y is equal to 7 less than 3 times of x.
Hence it doesn't represent direct variation.
B. 
Solving above expression we get;

From above equation we can state that y is equal to 10 more than x.
Hence it doesn't represent direct variation.
C. 
Solving above expression we get;

From above equation we can state that y is equal to x.
Hence it represent direct variation.
D. 
Solving above expression we get;

From above equation we can state that 4 times y is equal to 2 less than 4 times of x.
Hence it doesn't represent direct variation.
Hence the Answer which represent direct variation of x and y is,
C. 
Answer:
15 x 1 + 5 x 3 = 30
Step-by-step explanation:
If you turn the x into a one then it multiplies 15 by one and then it remains at 15, then you multiply 5 and 3 so that's 15 and then 15 + 15 is 30.
