Answer:

D. ÷ 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use any numbers for x to see what would happen to y:

If x was 5, y would be 1 (because 5 ÷ 5 = 1). Now, if we tripled x and made it 15 (5 × 3 = 15), y would be 1/3 (because 5 ÷ 15 = 1/3).

This means that the value of y divides by 3, option D

Hope this helps!

How do i solve this quadratic equation x²+6x+c

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

recall in a perfect square trinomial, the middle term is the tale-tell guy, we know the middle term is the product of 2 and the two other guys without the exponent, so in this case 6x = 2*√x² * √c.

$\bf 6x=2\cdot \sqrt{x^2}\cdot \sqrt{c}\implies 6x=2\sqrt{x^2c}\implies 6x=2x\sqrt{c}\\\\\\\cfrac{6x}{2x}=\sqrt{c}\implies 3=\sqrt{c}\implies 3^2=c\implies 9=c$
