The equation is y = 16/25 x
lets find the proportional relationship,
y = kx
2/5 = k * 5/8
k = (2/5) / (5/8)
k = 16/25
so if k, constant is 16/25
equation is:
y = 16/25 x
<h3>What are proportional relationships?</h3>
Proportional relationships are relationships between two variables where their ratios are equivalent. Another way to think about them is that, in a proportional relationship, one variable is always a constant value times the other. That constant is know as the "constant of proportionality".
<h3>How do you find the proportional relationship in an equation?</h3>
The equation that represents a proportional relationship, or a line, is y = k x , where is the constant of proportionality. Use k = y x from either a table or a graph to find k and create the equation.

Let the number be n.
Then 3n+5 = n+40
Combining like terms, we get
2n = 35, and so n = 35/7, or 17 1/2.
Answer:
The step 4 is not what he should have done. But the wrong is step 5, because if he added -2x both sides, it would give the following equation:
and not 
Note that in step 4 he should have added 2x and not -2x to both sides, but we still have the equality. The problem is that step 5 is totally wrong.
I don't know what answer is expected to this question, but I would mark step 5, because this is mathematically wrong.
Solving the equation
Using distribution
Add 
both sides
Add 12 both sides
Divide both sides by 5
