Answer:
A. The two lines are neither parallel nor perpendicular.
Step-by-step explanation:
So k=katie's' age
m=mara's age
k is 2 times as old as m
k=2m
sum is 24
add means sum
k+m=24
so we have
k+m=24 and
k=2m
subsitute
2m+m=24
add
3m=24
divide both sides by 3
m=8
subsitute again
k=2m
k=2(8)
k=16
katie=16
mara=8
You would fill in 9 for x so your equation would be 2(9)+3 and you would then get 21. Therefore the answer is f(x)=21
