Answer: 
<u>Simplify both sides of the equation</u>

<u>Subtract 5n from both sides</u>

<u>Subtract 15 from both sides</u>

6(4x + 5) = 3(x + 8) + 3
24x + 30 = 3x + 24 + 3
24x + 30 = 3x + 27
24x - 3x = 27 - 30
21x = - 3
x = -3/21
x = - 0.143 <==
Answer:
Yes they are equivalent.
Step-by-step explanation:
They each represent one half.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A vertical stretch by a factor of k means that the point (x, y) on the graph of f (x) is transformed to the point (x, ky) on the graph of g(x), where k <1.
If k =1, then same graph we obtain and if k>1 we get a vertically shrink graph.
In our question, there is a vertical stretch of 3. This means new graph would have points as (x,y/3)
i.e. instead of f(x) = y, we have now f(x) = y/3
So transformation is g(x) = 3f(x)
Option A is correct.
2) Here f(x) = 3x+8 is transformed to g(x) =3x+6
i.e. y intercept is reduced by 2 units. Hence there is a translation of 2 units down.
