Answer:
1) 
2) 
3) 
4) 
5) 
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve each proportion, we apply cross multiplication.
Question 1:
Simplifying both sides by 5
Question 2:
Simplifying both sides by 20
Simplifying by 3
Simplifying by 2
Question 3:
Simplifying both sides by 7
Simplifying both sides by 3
Question 4:
Question 5:
Simplifying by 2, both sides
Simplifying by 8, both sides
Y2-y1 over x2-x1 or you can go onto the calculator and push list and put in the points and it will give you the answer of 68

Answer: 9</h3>
================================================
Work Shown:
a = unknown = leg #1
b = 12 = leg #2
c = 15 = hypotenuse
Plug those values into the pythagorean theorem and solve for 'a'
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a^2 + (12)^2 = (15)^2 .... substitution
a^2 + 144 = 225
a^2 = 225 - 144 ... subtracting 144 from both sides
a^2 = 81
a = sqrt(81) .... applying square root to both sides
a = 9
We solve the as follows:
<span>1. Solve proportion 12/15 = 18/b
</span>( 12/15 = 18/b ) b<span>
( 12b/15 = 18 ) 15/12
b = 18(15/12)
b = 45/2
2. Solve equations
A. -x + 4 = x +6
</span>-x + 4 - x = x +6 - x
<span>-2x + 4 - 4 = 6 - 4
-2x = 2
x = -1
B. 5n + 7 =7(n+1) -2n
5n + 7 = 7n + 7 - 2n
5n -7n + 2n = 7 - 7
0 = 0
C. -4(p+2) + 8 = 2(p-1) - 7p + 15
-4p - 8 + 8 = 2p - 2 - 7p + 15
-4p + 7p - 2p = -2 + 15 + 8 - 8
p =13
3. Solve a/b x - c = 0 for x
</span>a/b x - c = 0
( a/b x = c ) b/a
x = bc / a
