27x + 9 
------------
     3

Break down the fraction. 3 is the common denominator, so it is the denominator of both numerators.

27x/3 + 9/3 = 0
9x + 3 = 0 
9x = -3
x = -3/9  simplified to x = -1/3

Or simply multiply the fraction with 3/1 to remove the denominator, which is 3.

27x + 9         3            27x + 9
-----------   x  -------  =   -----------------  or 27x + 9 = 0 ; look for x.
     3              1                 1

To check: Substitute x by its value: 
(27x + 9) / 3 = 0 ⇒ ((27 * -1/3) + 9) / 3 = 0 
⇒ (-9 + 9)/3 = 0 ⇒ 0/3 = 0 ⇒ 0 = 0

Analyze Relationships A scale for a scale drawing is 10 cm:1mm. Which is larger, the actual object or the scale drawing: Explain
sleet_krkn [62]
If you're saying that the scale is 10 cm: 1 mm then the scale will be larger than the actual object because for every 1 mm of the object it will equal 10 cm of the scale drawing.
