I agree with you on this problem. It is A. If that is the final answer, the negative exponent must be flipped in order to be positive. According to the equation, it is not positive so it is not a simpflied polynomial.
Answer:
y=0.3x
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula = 
y α x
y = kx
Where k is the constant of proportionality.
When y = 1.5; x = 5;
We substitute these known values in the equation,
y = kx
1.5 = k5
Dividing both sides of the equation by 5 to find the value for k, we have
1.5/5= k0.3/5
Therefore,
K = 0.3
Having found the value of k,
We substitute this value into the relationship
y = kx
Therefore we have,
y = 0.3x.
The direct variation function is therefore,
y = 0.3x.

Answer:
231 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Tom rented a truck with a base fee of 19.95. You will subtract this from the total since you just want to get the mileage.
Tom is getting charged .85 cents per mile driven.
Tom payed 216.30 subtotal minus the 19.95 base fee since we are trying to only see how many miles he drove.
(216.30-19.95=196.35) This will be total for each mile. All we need to do is divide to get the total of miles
(196.35÷.85= 231)
231 is the number of miles Tom drove.
First, add t to each side:
2t - 6 = 8
Add 6 to each side:
2t = 14
Divide both sides by 2:
t = 7
Hope this helps!! :)
