Answer:
x = 66
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x by simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolating the variable.
the x s are the independent variable so any direct change to them is changing the independent. like the second one has -5 on the x
Simple...
you have: For every 14 seeds that Okra seeds Dana planted 9 of them grew; if he planted 182 seeds..how many grew?
Set up an equation...

Cross multiply....
14*x=14x
9*182=1638
14x=1638

x=117
This means that, for 182 seeds planted, 117 of them grew to be plants.
Thus, your answer.
First, lets observe this pattern.
We can notice that each number when multiplied by 3 gives the following number as:
4 x 3 = 12
12 x 3 = 36
36 x 3 = 108
108 x 3 = 324
Based on this, the next number in the pattern will be:
324 x 3 = 972
The right choice is:
c. 972
