The equation x = 5y expresses a relationship between x and y, meaning x is always five times y.

Possible interpretations:

1. If solving for y:
   $y = \frac{x}{5}$
2. If given a value for x or y:
   • If y = 2, then x = 5(2) = 10.
   • If x = 15, then y = \frac{15}{5} = 3.
3. Graphically:
   This represents a straight line passing through the origin with slope 5.
