First subtract the 7 from both sides and that would equal 2x+9=2x then subtract 2x and the answer is 9

There are no real solutions to this equation and that would be your answer.
If you subtract 7 from both sides you get 2x+9=2x. No value of x would make that equation true, so you have to write on your paper that there are no real solutions as your answer.

Y is directly proportional to x when y=30, x=6

rosijanka [135]

Answer:

a) y = 5x

b) y = 60

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, y is directly proportional to x when y=30, x=6

$\therefore \: y \: \alpha \: \: x \\ \therefore \: y = kx ...(1) \\ plug \: y = 30 \: and \: x = 6 \: in \: eq \: (1)\\ 30 = k \times 6 \\ k = \frac{30}{6} \\ k = 5 \\ plug \: k = 5 \: in \: (1) \\ y = 5x....(2) \: (required \: equation) \\ plug \: x = 12 \: in \: eq \: (2) \\ y = 5 \times 12 \\ \huge \red{ \boxed{y = 60}}$

If f is a function, then f(3x)=3f(x)

Delvig [45]

This is false.
The f(3x) means you are multiplying the input 'x' by 3 before plugging into the equation.
3f(x) means you are going to multiply your answer (output) by 3 after you've plugged the input value in and gotten the output.
