x = the unknown number

nine <u>times</u>(multiplication) a number(x) divided(division) by 2 equals(=) 54,
so 9x is divided by 2
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
A direct variation equation has the following format:

Where k is a constant.
We know that y is 12 when x is -2. Thus, substitute:

Divide both sides by -2:

So, our direct variation equations is:

To find what x is when y equals -6, substitute in -6 for y:

Divide both sides by -6:

So, our answer is 1 :)

3⁹ is the same as doing:
3 * 3 * 3 * 3 * 3 * 3 * 3 * 3 * 3
What I would do it is narrow it down piece by piece.
3 * 3 * 3 = 27. Do that 3 times, now you are left with:
27 * 27 * 27
27 * 27 or 27² = 729.
That leaves you with:
729 * 27
You can multiply by hand or use a calculator to get your answer of 19683.
To check your answer, plug 3⁹ into a calculator. Your answer should match this.
The angles opposite equal sides are also equal. The sum of angles in a triangle is 180. So 2x + 27 + 2x + 27 + 3x + 28 = 180.
7x + 82 = 180
7x = 98
x = 14
Now plug x into each angle to find their measures.
