j = -37
Step-by-step explanation:
First find the slope of 2x + 3y = 21
Solve for y
Subtract 2x from each side
2x-2x + 3y =-2x+ 21
3y = -2x+21
Divide by 3
3y/3 = -2x /3 + 21/3
y = -2/3 x +7
This is in slope intercept form y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
m = -2/3
The slope of parallel lines are equal
Using the two points
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
-2/3 = (17 - -9)/(j-2)
-2/3 = (17 +9)/(j-2)
Using cross products
-2(j-2) = 3 ( 17+9)
-2j +4 = 26*3
-2j +4 = 78
Subtract 4 each side
-2j = 78-4
-2j = 74
Divide by -2
-2j/-2 = 74/-2
j = -37

16 km due west
Step-by-step explanation:
The bearing of the school p from school q is 16 km due west.
To find the bearing of school q from school p, we have to find the direction that the school q is with respect to school p.
Since p is directly west of q, then it implies that q must be directly east of p.
We now know the direction.
Since the distance from q to p is exactly the same as the distance from p to q, then, the distance from p to q is 16 km.
Hence, the bearing of q from p is 16 km due west.
