Step-by-step explanation:

-3x-9

divide the equation by -1 so that the -1's are taken from -3x and -9. so the -1 goes on the outside of 3x+9

-1(3x+9)

then divide the equation by 3 since 3x and 9 is divisible by 3.

(-1)(3)(3/3x+9/3)

-3(x+3)

Now we can expand again to check the problem

-3 times x=-3x

-3 times 3=-9

and add

-3x-9

Hope that helps :)

The given polygons are similar

Step-by-step explanation:

By observing the given diagrams, we can see that the respective angles are congruent.

Two shapes are said to be similar if they have same shapes or one shape is created by uniformly increasing or decreasing the side of other.

For this purpose we find the scale factor of greater to smaller image, if the scale factor is same for each side then the two shapes are similar

So,

The scale factor is:

$\frac{EF}{AB} = \frac{3}{1} = 3\\\\\frac{FG}{BC} = \frac{9}{3} = 3\\\\\frac{GH}{CD} = \frac{15}{5} = 3\\\\\frac{EH}{AD} = \frac{21}{7} = 3$

We can see that the scale factor is same for all sides.

Hence,

The given polygons are similar

Find the value.<br> 9x+6 when x=-2/3

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

$- \frac{2}{3}$

Now, let's find the value of 9x + 6

$9x + 6$

plug the value of X

$= 9 \times (- \frac{2}{3} ) + 6$

Multiplying a positive and negative equals a negative

$( + ) \times ( - ) = ( - )$

$= - 9 \times \frac{2}{3} + 6$

Reduce the number with Greatest Common Factor 3

$= - 3 \times 2 + 6$

Multiply the numbers

$= - 6 + 6$

The sum of two opposites equals 0

$= 0$

Hope this helps..

best regards!!
