They are not equivalent because:
<em>6*3=18 </em>
but...
<em>4*3=12 <- </em>The ratio says "8" not "12"
If you don't get it just say and I'll explain it further. :)
Have an awesome day!

Answer:
5x² - 10x - 15 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the roots are x = 3 and x = - 1, then the factors are
(x - 3) and (x + 1) and the quadratic is the product of the factors, that is
f(x) = a(x - 3)(x + 1) ← a is a multiplier
Here a = 5, thus
f(x) = 5(x - 3)(x + 1) ← expand factors using FOIL
= 5(x² - 2x - 3) ← distribute parenthesis by 5
= 5x² - 10x - 15
Thus equation is
5x² - 10x - 15 = 0
The pattern of a linear function, is the following:
y = mx + b
Where m is always the slope.
m in this case is -4, hence
The correct answer for your question is -4.
Alrighty, what I was always taught was to start by writing out what you know from the question.
What I know:
-Tom is paid $0.23 for every page of proofs.
-He proofreads 1,992 pages.
In order to figure out how much money Tom has made, we need to multiply 0.23 by 1,992. Multiplying allows us to see the total amount of money made by proofreading x amount of pages - for every page he proofreads, he makes $0.23.
0.23×1992=458.16
Therefore, Tom made $458.16.
Hope this helps!
