Answer:

d. - 15

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for direct variation is

y = kx

We know y =3 when x = -9

3 = k(-9)

Divide by -9

3/-9 = -9k/-9

-1/3 = k

The equation is then

y = -1/3 x

We know y = 5

5 = -1/3 x

Multiply each side by -3

-3*5 = -3*-1/3x

-15 = x

Answer:

∠ 1 = 20 x + 5

∠ 2 = 24 x - 1

If lines l and m are parallel:

∠ 1 + ∠ 2 = 180°

20 x + 5 + 24 x - 1 = 180

44 x + 4 = 180

44 x = 180 - 4

44 x = 176

x = 176 : 44

x = 4°

Your welcome again :)

Step-by-step explanation:

An isosceles triangle are three sides of two sides being equal in lengths.

If that is the case, the two opposite slanting sides which are equal, must be longer. Invariably, the third side is 12.
