Answer: OPTION A
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of the line in slope-intercept form is:
Where m is the slope and b the y-intercept.
Solve for y from each equation:
As you can see the slope and the y-intercept of each equation are equal, this means that both are the exact same line. Therefore, you can conclude that the system has infinitely many solutions.
y = - 3
Since y varies directly as x then
y = kx ← ( k is the constant of variation )
to find k use y = - 1 when x = 3
k = =
= -
hence y = - x
when x = 9, then
y = - × 9 = - 3
