The easiest way to do this is to plug in the numbers for the variebles and see if they equal the same in both sides. lets try the first one 5(1)+2(-3)=-1, multiply the nmbers to get 5-6=-1 now simplify to get the answer of -1=-1, they both equal the same so this means that the first option is the correct one
Hope this helps
They are not in proportion, since its 6:9 round it down (2:3) so pretend the 6 are apples and the 9 are oranges
Every 2 apples there are 3 oranges
So having 9 apples what is that?
2 x ? = 9
2 x 4.5 = 9
So if you want to keep 2:3 you have you times the oranges by 4.5 aswell!
3 x 4.5 = 13.5
So since it is 9:12 not 9:13.5 they are not in proportion
Answer:
15 students
Step-by-step explanation:
No. of boys students = No. of all students - No. of girls
no. of boys =50-15 = 35 boys
the boys that will play the match are 2/7 of boys = (2/7)x35 = 10 boys
and the girls that will play the match are 5 girls
so, no of students chosen to play = 5+10=15 students
