Answer:

Yes,[tex]k=-\frac{1}{3}[/tex] and [tex]y=-\frac{1}{3}x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Using (-6,2) and (-9,3)

We have [tex]k=\frac{2-3}{-6--9}=-\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

This implies that;

[tex]y=-\frac{1}{3}x[/tex]

Checking for the third point,

When x=-15,

[tex]y=-\frac{1}{3}(-15)=5[/tex]

Hence y varies directly as x.
