Answer:
the expressions are not equivalent
Step-by-step explanation:
7(x+2y) (distribute 7 into the parentheses)
= x(7) + 2y(7)
= (7x + 14y) ≠ (14x + 14y)
hence the expressions are not equivalent
Answer: x=20/3=6.67
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve proportions, the most useful way is to use [cross multiplication], where we not multiply horizontally but as diagonally.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Given
x:10=9:6
Cross Multiply
9·x=6·10
9x=60
Divide 9 on both sides
9x/9=60/9
x=20/3=6.67
Hope this helps!! :)

Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
If it is accurate then it would have gotten the correct weight, but by going down to the thousandths it would be precise
Remark
I think you want us to do both 3 and 4
Three
QR is 4 points going left from the y axis + 2 points going right from the y axis.
QR = 6 units long.
RT is 4 units above the x axis and 3 units below the x axis
RT = 7 units long
TS = 3 units. For this one you just go from T to S. The graph really helps you. You just need to count.
Problem 4
You need to find the area of the combined figure. You could do it as a trapezoid, which might be the easiest way. I'll do that first.
Area = (b1 + b2)*h/2
Givens
B1 = QR = 6
B2 = UT + TS = 6 + 3 = 9
h = RT = 7
Area
Area = (6 + 9)*7/2
Area = 15 * 7 / 2
Area = 52.5
Comment
You could break this up into a rectangle + a triangle
Find the area of QRTU and add the Area of triangle RTS
<em>Area of the rectangle </em>= L * W
L = RT = 7
W = QR = 6
Area = 7 *6 = 42
<em>Area of the triangle</em> = 1/2 * B * H
B = TS = 3
H = RT =7
Area = 1/2 * 3 * 7
Area = 1/2 * 21
Area = 10.5
Total Area = 42 + 10.5 = 52.5 Both answers agree.
