One approach is to express
8x2y
so that the numerator and denominator are expressed with the same base. Since 2 and 8 are both powers of 2, substituting 2^3 for 8 in the numerator of 8x2y gives
(23)x2y
which can be rewritten
2^3x2y
Since the numerator and denominator of have a common base, this expression can be rewritten as 2(3x−y). In the question, it states that 3x−y=12, so one can substitute 12 for the exponent, 3x−y, which means that
8x2y=2^12

:Think of the equation as an equation for a line. $$y=mx+b$$. where in this case..
You can see the slope of the graph is ${5}/{9}$, which means that for an increase of 1 degree Fahrenheit, the increase is ${5}/{9}$ of 1 degree Celsius.
$$C= {5}/{9} (F)$$
$$C= {5}/{9} (1)= {5}/{9}$$
Therefore, statement I is true. This is the equivalent to saying that an increase of 1 degree Celsius is equal to an increase of ${9}/{5}$ degrees Fahrenheit.
An increase of $5/9$ degree Fahrenheit leads to an increase of ${25}/{81}$, not 1 degree, Celsius, and so Statement III is not true.
The final answer is D.
