You can use a plot diagram to plot the points and if they all go straight through the origin then it is proportional :)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
They are equivalent. Use the distributive property.
3(x+3)
the 3 on the outside of the parenthesis is multiplied by the variable(the letter) and thenthe constant(number) inside the parenthesis.
makes and equivalent equation 3x+9
The answer would be 1380000
16 ounces= 1 pound
48÷16=3
3 pounds
6x+1 / 2x +6 - 5/2
Factor 2 out of the denominator of the first fraction:
6x+1 / 2(x+3) - 5/2
Rewrite 5/2 to have a common denominator with the first fraction:
6x+1/2(x+3) - 5(x+3) / 2(x+3)
Simplify terms:
6x +1 - 5(x+3) / 2(x+3)
Use distributive property:
6x +1 - 5x -15 / 2(x+3)
Combine like terms for final answer:
(x-14) / 2(x+3)
