Answer:

C. -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, y varies directly with x,

⇒ y ∝ x

⇒ y = kx -----(1)

Where k is the constant of proportionality,

Given,

y = 6 when x = - 2,

From equation (1),

6=k(-2)

\implies k = \frac{6}{-2}=-3

Again from equation (1),

y = - 3x

If y = 15,

15 = -3x

\implies x = -\frac{15}{3}=-5

Hence, option C is correct.

A kitten was given to a child as a birthday present when she was two years old. The cat lived a good life, but eventually became
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer: 14 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cat's age when it died = x.

Therefore, the child's age is 2 + x because he/she got the cat when he/she was 2 years old.

We can set up an equation.

x + (2+x) = 30

2x + 2 = 30

2x = 28

Therefore, x = 14
