The proportion would be 1/3 and x/9. Cross multiplication creates 3x=9. Divide both sided by three, and there are 3 trombones in the orchestra.

<h3>What is expression?</h3>
An expression is a set of terms combined using the operations +, – , x or ,/.
Given:
1. 22 − 1 (4)
=22- 1*4
= 22-4
= 18
2. 2 + 2 (3)
=2+2*3
=2+6
=8
3. 1 − 2
= -1

Answer:
20 times
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following :
Probability of rolling a number less than 3 on a number cube:
Required outcome = (1, 2)
Total possible outcomes = (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6)
Required outcome / Total possible outcomes
= 2 /6
= 1/3
Hence, if number cube is rolled 60 times, number of times a number less than 3 is expected :
(Probability of obtaining a number less than 3 in one roll × number of rolls)
= (1 / 3) × 60
= 60 / 3
= 20 times
To solve this question, we just need to insert 12 into the m position of each question and see if the equation holds true.
a. 4m = 40
4(12) = 40
48 = 40
48 obviously does not equal 40, so it is not choice A.
b. m + 20 = 42
12 + 20 = 42
32 = 42
Again, 32 isn't the same as 42, so not choice B either.
c. 4m = 48
4(12) = 48
48 = 48
It looks like this one is true, but let's solve D also just to make sure.
d. m - 4 = 9
12 - 4 = 9
8 = 9
This is false, since 8 does not equal 9.
Therefore, choice C (4m = 48) is the correct answer.
