-2(5y-20) - 5y = -5
-10y + 40 - 5y = -5
-15y + 40 = -5
-15y = -45, y = 3
x = 5(3) - 20
x = 15 - 20, x = -5
Solution: x = -5, y = 3... or (-5,3)

What is the direct linear variation equation for the relationship?

defon

$\bf \begin{array}{cccccclllll}
\textit{something}&&\textit{varies directly to}&&\textit{something else}\\ \quad \\
\textit{something}&=&{{ \textit{some value}}}&\cdot &\textit{something else}\\ \quad \\
y&=&{{ K}}&\cdot&x
\\ \\
&& y={{ K }}x
\end{array}
\\ \quad \\

\begin{cases}
y=4\\
x=12
\end{cases}\implies y=Kx\implies 4=K\cdot 12$

solve for "K", to see what "K" is, or the "constant of variation",
once you found K, plug it back in y=Kx, and that's the equation
