-8x + x + 15 = -7x + 12
-7x + 17 = -7x + 12
-7x + 7x = 12 - 17
0 = - 5 which is a false statement, therefore, there is no solution for the equation -8x + x + 15 = -7x + 12.

If y is 2.5 when x is 5 and y varies directly with x, the equation is y = kx where k is the constant. With given values k = y/x = 2.5/5 = 0.5
The equation is y = 0.5x.
when x is 10, y = 0.5(10) = 5.
