3(x+y)=y

3(x+y)=y

y is not equal to zero

*Solution  

1. The given equation is 3(x+y) = y and we are tasked to find the ratio between x and y. Distributing 3 to the terms in the parenthesis,  

                       3(x+y) = y

                     3x + 3y = y

Transposing 3y to the right side OR subtracting 3y from both the left-hand side and the right-hand side of the equation would give

                             3x = -2y

Dividing both sides of the equation by 3,  

                               x = (-2/3)y

Dividing both sides of the equation by y,  

                             x/y = -2/3

Therefore, the ratio x/y has a value of -2/3 provided that y is not equal to zero.

The path of a ball thrown can be modeled by the equation f(x)=−16x^2+45x+6, where x is the horizontal distance. Use a transforma
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

  g(x) = -4x^2 +(45/2)x +6

Step-by-step explanation:

A function is scaled horizontally by replacing x with x/k, where k is the expansion factor. Here, we want to expand the graph horizontally by a factor of 2, so the new function will be f(x/2).

  g(x) = f(x/2) = -16(x/2)^2 +45(x/2) +6

  g(x) = -4x^2 +(45/2)x +6
