70-q-q-2q= 80

combine like terms first

so you get 70-4q= 80

subtract 70 on both sides and you get -4q= 10

divide -4 on both sides and you get q= 10/-4 or -2.5

How can knowing how to represent proportional relationships in different ways be useful to solving problems
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

  appropriately writing the proportion can reduce or eliminate steps required to solve it

Step-by-step explanation:

The proportion ...

  \dfrac{A}{B}=\dfrac{C}{D}

is equivalent to the equation obtained by "cross-multiplying:"

  AD = BC

This equation can be written as proportions in 3 other ways:

  \dfrac{B}{A}=\dfrac{D}{C}\qquad\dfrac{A}{C}=\dfrac{B}{D}\qquad\dfrac{C}{A}=\dfrac{D}{B}

  Effectively, the proportion can be written upside-down and sideways, as long as the corresponding parts are kept in the same order.

I find this most useful to ...

  a) put the unknown quantity in the numerator

  b) give that unknown quantity a denominator of 1, if possible.

__

The usual method recommended for solving proportions is to form the cross-product, as above, then divide by the coefficient of the variable. If the variable is already in the numerator, you can simply multiply the proportion by its denominator.

<u>Example</u>:

  x/4 = 3/2

Usual method:

  2x = 4·3

  x = 12/2 = 6

Multiplying by the denominator:

  x = 4(3/2) = 12/2 = 6 . . . . . . saves the "cross product" step

__

<u>Example 2</u>:

  x/4 = 1/2 . . . . we note that "1" is "sideways" from x, so we can rewrite the proportion as ...

  x/1 = 4/2 . . . . . . written with 1 in the denominator

  x = 2 . . . . simplify

Of course, this is the same answer you would get by multiplying by the denominator, 4.

The point here is that if you have a choice when you write the initial proportion, you can make the choice to write it with x in the numerator and 1 in the denominator.
