Answer:
There are 40 books total
Step-by-step explanation:
you need to set a proportion
The first fraction is 55/100 it's over 100 because it's percent
the other fraction is 22/x the 22 is out of a total number so that's why it's on top and x because you don't know the total number of books
then you multiply diagonally
55×x= 22×100
55x=2,200
Then you solve it like a regular equation by dividing both sides by 55
x=40
The relation is <em>not a function</em> if any x-value is repeated.
Assuming you have
(x, y) = (3, 10), (__, 20)
if x = 3, the relation is not a function.

Answer: B) 2</h3>
=========================================================
Explanation:
Take away the four white small squares on the left side. To balance things out, you have to add 4 black squares to the right side.
Also, take away the two white long rectangles from the right side. To balance this out, you have to add 2 gray long rectangles to the left side.
You should have:
- 5 gray rectangles, and no squares (of any color) on the left side
- 10 black squares, no long rectangles (of any color), on the right side
From here you'll group up the 10 black squares so that you'll have 2 black squares per gray rectangle.
This means the solution is 2.
-------------------------------------
If you're curious about the algebraic way to solve, then you could do this:
3x-4 = -2x+6
3x+2x = 6+4
5x = 10
x = 10/5
x = 2
This method doesn't require us to use the visual model.
