There are 8 black socks and 20 white socks. 5 socks times 4 = 20 white socks, and 2 socks times 4 = 8 black socks. So, Pa has 8 black socks.
I believe the last answer would be correct.
Plug in numbers in for x.
If you plug in 0 then you get 1. 1/0 is undefined
If you plug in 1 then you get 6. 6/1 is 6
If you plug in 2 then you get 11. 11/2 is 5.5
If you plug in 3 then you get 16. 16/3 is 5.3 repeating
If you plug in 4 then you get 21. 21/4 is 5.25
If you plug in 5 then you get 26. 26/5 is 5.2
It would only be proportional if you got the same answer after dividing each time.
(3p)(3p) or 3p x 3p. Cause the exponent means 3p times 3p
