Step 1:

Write the formula connecting y and x.

\begin{gathered} y\text{ }\propto\text{   x} \\ y\text{ = kx} \\ k\text{ = }\frac{y}{x} \end{gathered}

Step 2:

Find the value of k when y = 12 and x = 9

\begin{gathered} k\text{ = }\frac{y}{x}\text{  =  }\frac{12}{9}\text{   =  }\frac{4}{3} \\ \text{Therefore} \\ y\text{ = }\frac{4}{3}x \end{gathered}

Step 3

You can find x when y = 80.

\begin{gathered} \text{Frpm y = }\frac{4}{3} \\ \text{When y = 80} \\ 80\text{ = }\frac{4x}{3} \\ \text{Cross multiply} \\ 4x\text{ = 80}\times3 \\ 4x\text{ = 240     Divide both sides of the equation by 4} \\ x\text{ = }\frac{240}{4} \\ x\text{ = 60} \end{gathered}

Final answer

x = 60

Answer:  proof below

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Use the Difference formula for sin:

  sin (A - B) = sin(A)·cos(B) - cos(A)·sin(B)

sin (180° - θ) = sin(180°)·cos(θ) - cos(180°)·sin(θ)

                    =       0  · cos(θ)    -      -1  · sin(θ)

                    =              0           -           -sin(θ)

                    =                         + sin(θ)

sin (180° - θ) = sin(θ)  \checkmark
