If y varies directly as x, find the direct variation equation for the situation.
-$y = 1.5$ when $x = 0.3$
A) $y = 0.2 x$
B) $y = 0.3 x$
C) $y = 5 x$
D) $y = x + 1.2$

To find the direct variation equation, use the formula $y = kx$, where $k$ is the constant of variation. Given $y = 1.5$ when $x = 0.3$, solve for $k$: $1.5 = k(0.3)$, which gives $k = 5$. Therefore, the equation is $y = 5x$.
