Answer:
9+x<12
Step-by-step explanation:
add 9 to an unknown number.
9+x
use the < less than symbol (instead of an equal sign) and write 12.
here the equation of path is -2x-7=y
let us find slope of this line by using y=mx+b
so slope m=-2
now new path is perpendicular to this path.
product of slopes of perpendiculars is -1
so slope of new path is 1/2
now it passes through (-2,-3) with slope 1/2
using y=mx+b to get value of b
-3=1/2(-2) +b
b=-2
plugging m=-1/2 and b=-2 in y=mx + b to get the final equation as
y=(-1/2) x -2 is the equation of new path
x=8+sqrt-8/12, x=8-sqrt-8/12
I think...

cannot be changed to a mixed number. 10 could divide both numerator and denominator. And you get 2.
Line a intersects both lines c and d.
Line a is a transversal to lines c and d.
Angles 10 and 14 are corresponding angles.
Since corresponding angles are congruent, lines a and c are parallel.
Line b has nothing to do with this question.
Answer is choice A.
