The value 600 is 30 times as much as 20
<h3>Ratio and proportion</h3>
Ratio are written in terms of fractions. The expression 600 is how many times as much as 20 can be written as;
600 = x *20
where x is the required value or factor
20x = 600
Divide both sides by 20
20x/20 = 600/20
x = 30
Hence the value 600 is 30 times as much as 20

The answer is:
Both have the same number of data points
Both means are between 3 and 4
Westwood has less variability than Middleton
Answer: Never true.
Step-by-step explanation: Distribute the numbers: 4 times x is 4x, 4 times 3 is 12. Then you have the equation: -x+4x +12 = -12. Now, choose a random number, maybe -4. A negative plus a negative cancels out so you are left with 4-16(Because you distribute the number) +12 = -12. 4-16 is -12. -12 plus 12 equals 0.
Pick a number: 5
Add 7: 5+7=12
Triple the result: 12*12*12=1728
Add 9= 1728+9=1737
Divide by 3 = 1737/3=579
Subtract original number = 579-5=574
Now pick a different number a do the same process
Hope that helps
This may not be very pretty.
(2x + 5) * (2x + 5) expanded is (use foil)
F = 4x^2
O = 2x * 5 = 10x
I = 2x + 5 = 10x
L = 25
Total = 4x^2 + 20x + 25
(x + 3)(x + 3) = x^2 + 6x + 9 by the same method
(2x + 7)(2x + 7) = 4x^2 + 28x + 49 Same method.
4x^2 + 20x + 25 + x^2 + 6x + 9 = 4x^2 + 28x + 49
5x^2 + 26x + 34 = 4x^2 + 28x + 49 Collect everything on the left.
x^2 - 2x - 15 = 0
(x - 5)(x + 3) = 0
x + 3 will have no meaning.
x - 5 = 0
x = 5
2x + 5 = 2*5 + 5 = 15
x + 3 = 5 + 3 = 8
2x+ 7 = 2*5 +7 = 17
Check
15^2 + 8^2 = 17^2
225 + 64 = ? 289
289 = 289
a = 15 <<<<< answer
b = 8 <<<<< answer
c = 17 <<<<< answer
