If the pattern (see attachment) below was tripled, the ratio of black squares to gray squares would be equal to 1:2.
<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>
A proportion can be defined as an equation which is typically used to represent (indicate) the equality of two (2) ratios. This ultimately implies that, proportions can be used to establish that two (2) ratios are equivalent and solve for all unknown quantities.
Mathematically, a direct proportion can be represented by the following equation:
y = kx
Where:
- y and x are the variables.
- k represents the constant of proportionality.
<h3>What is a ratio?</h3>
A ratio can be defined as a mathematical expression that's used to denote the proportion of two (2) or more quantities with respect to one another and the total quantities.
For this exercise, the ratio of black square to gray squares is given by:
B:G = 1:2
Tripling the pattern, we would multiply by three (3) as follows:
B:G = [1:2] × 3
B:G = 3:6
Dividing all through by 3, we have:
B:G = [3:6]/3
B:G = 3/3 : 6/3
B:G = 1:2.

Answer: x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
It’s in the picture , i hope this helped you
K(x) = 5x-6
(k+k)(x) = k(x) + k(x) = 5x-6 +5x-6
just plug in x = 4,
(k+k)(4) = 5(4) -6 + 5(4) -6
thats your answer, the last option.
Answer:
x = -8/3
y = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
I assume you want to solve for x and y.
The best way to do this with the two formulas given is elimination. This means add the two equations together.
6x + 5y = 4
-6x + y = 20
The 6 x and -6x will cancel each other. By adding the like terms of the two together you will come out with
6y = 24
Now solve for y by dividing both sides by the 6.
y = 24/6 = 4
Now that we have y, you can plug it into one of the equations and solve for x.
Let's use -6x + y =20.
So plug in the 4 for y to get -6x + 4 = 20
Subtract the 4 from both sides then solve for y by dividing both sides by the -6.
-6x = 16
x = -16/6
You can reduce that down so that x = -8/3.
