I assume the answer is 1/4
The key words you should notice when looking at this word problem are “less than.” This means that the order is flipped, so “3 less than k” means “k minus 3.”
The expression for the ratio is k-3:k+3
Hope this helps
Graph 2, Option 4 would be your answer because:
If you substitute 1 into the equation (x), you would get about 212
If you substitute 2, you would get approximately 225
If you substitute 10, you would get approximately 364.
Looking at the graph, your answer would be going up and to the right, the population is getting bigger while the years are increasing as well.
If we substitute 15 into x in the equation, we would get approximately 492.
The solution set of 3x+5=x+2 is x=-1. This is because you want to get the variables on one side and the numbers on the other. you subtract x on both sides and subtract 5 on both sides. your equation then becomes 3x=-3. you then divide 3 on both sides and you get your answer of x=-1.
