You are correct. The scale factor is 1/5 = 0.2
Nice work.
The answer is 45
------------------------------------------------------------
Yes it is 1/8.You don’t multiply the top part of the fraction,just the bottom.
You use the distributive property.
9 times v = 9v
9 times -4 = -36
Therefore the answer is
9v-36
Solve for b?
1. Distribute “4(4b+3)” and “3(6-11)”
16b+12+2b=18-33
2. combine like terms
18b+12=-15
18b=-27
b=-27/18
3. simplify
b=3/2
