2x-4y=8
Add 4y to each side to separate the variables, since you want to solve for x let be on the left
2x=4y+8
Divide the entire equation by 2 to allow x to stand alone
x=2y+4
And I have to type some more so it will let me answer the question so here ya go
The equation of direct proportion is y = 62x
<h3>
Direct variation</h3>
Two quantities are said to vary directly proportional to each other when an increase in one leads to an increase in the other or a decrease in one leads to a decrease in the other.
Direct variation is given by:
y = kx
where y, x are the variables and k is the constant of proportionality.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The pressure is equal to the atmospheric pressure 101 kN/m plus 8 kN/m for every meter below the surface, therefore;
a. expression for pressure is given by,
............................... (1)
where d = depth below the surface in meter.
b. to find the depth at any pressure, equation (1) above is rearranged to make depth (d) subject of the formula

as an example, to find depth at pressure of 200N/m
d = (200 - 101)/8 = 12.375 meters
depth is 12.375 meters below the surface.
