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

Cloud [144]
1/2(x+6)=2x
1/2x + 3 = 2x
x + 6 = 4x

5-2(2)+7(2) = h
h = 5 - 4 + 14
h = 1 + 14
h = 15
