The given equation: y = 5x

Amie is y years old which is 5 years more than her sister Marie who is x years old

Age of Amie = 5 + Age of Marie

y = 5 + x

A restaurant prepares y meals from 5 pounds of meat which costs x dollars

Cost of y meals = Weight of the meal x Price

y = 5x

A car cost x dollars which is 5 times more than a motorcycle which costs y dollars 0 Deondre had y pens.

Cost of car = 5 + Cost of Motorcycle

x = 5 + y

Answer : A restaurant prepares y meals from 5 pounds of meat which costs x dollars
