Here, we are to solve for the value of x in the given euation;

2/(3x-9) = 6

We can solve this by making a cross multiplication

2/(3x-9) = 6/1

The cross-multiplication would yield;

2 * 1 = 6 * (3x-9)

2 = 6(3x-9)

opening the bracket, we have

2 = 18x - 54

Collect like terms;

54 + 2 = 18x

18x = 56

divide both sides by 18

18x/18 = 56/18

x = 28/9

x = 3 1/9

Answer:

(B)72 fluid ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert cups to fluid ounces, Sari wrote the equivalent ratios.

$\dfrac{8 \text{ fluid ounces}}{1\text{ cup}} =\dfrac{\text{? fluid ounces}}{9\text{ cups}}$

Let the question mark be represented by x.

We then have:

$\dfrac{8 \text{ fluid ounces}}{1\text{ cup}} =\dfrac{\text{x fluid ounces}}{9\text{ cups}}\\$Cross multiply\\x \times 1 = 8 \times 9\\x=72$ fluid ounces$

We conclude that there are 72 fluid ounces in 9 cups.
