Answer:

$3 for 6 bagels and $9 for 24 bagels are not equivalent.

Step-by-step explanation:

$3 for 6 bagels

i.e. 6 bangles cost $3

i.e. 6×3 bangles will cost $3×3

i.e. 18 bangles will cost $9

So, $3 for 6 bangles is equivalent to saying $9 for 18 bangles which is not equivalent to $9 for 24 bangles.

Hence, $3 for 6 bagels and $9 for 24 bagels are not equivalent.

No these are not equivelent. 24 is 4x6 so that would mean that you would have to pay $12 for those bagels and because 9 is not 3x4, 12 is making these two ratios not equivelent.

What is an extraneous solution to the equation b/b-3 -5/b=3/b-3 ?

storchak [24]

$\frac{b}{b-3} - \frac{5}{b} = \frac{3}{b-3} \\ \frac{ b^{2} -5(b-3)}{b(b-3)} =\frac{b}{b-3} \\ \frac{ b^{2} -5b+15}{b^2-3b} =\frac{b}{b-3} \\ (b-3)(b^{2} -5b+15)=b(b^2-3b) \\ b^3-8b^2+30b-45=b^3-3b^2 \\ 5b^2-30b+45=0 \\ b^2-6b+9=0 \\ (b -3)(b-3)=0 \\ b=3$

To check: 3/3-3 - 5/3 = 3/0 - 5/3 which is not defined.

Therefore, b = 3 is an extraneous solution.
