Use the substitution method
w(x)=9x+8
w(5)=9(5)+8
Do the parenthesis first then add because of using PEMDAS
P= Parentheses
E= Exponents
M= Multiplication
D= Division
A= Addition
S= Subtraction
45+8
=53
Answer: w(5)=53
I don't think it's proportional, because in order for a question to be a proportional question has/could be to be like this:
Gasoline costs $2.79 per 2 gallon. How much will it cost for 8 gallon. Then, we cross multiply and all to find the answer.
-3x+9 = -3(2x+3) + 3(x-4)+1
distribute
-3x+9 =-6x-9+3x-12+1
add like terms
-3x+9= -3x-20
add 3x to each side
9 = -20
there are no solutions because 9 does not equal -20
Answer:
thirty four thousand six hundred and eighty eight
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number be n
Part A- 2/3 + n = 2n+3
Part B- n= 2/3 -3
n= 2-9 / 3
n= -7/3 =-2.33
