n = 4

Since you divide 6 by 3 to get 2, you divide 12 by 3 and you get 4.

Answer: 4

Step-by-step explanation: This problem is already set out as a proportion. you can cross multiply 6 times n which gives you 6n. Then 12 times 2 which gives 24.

Now you have 6n = 24. You can divide right away, or think of a number when you multiply into 6 gives you 24. Its obvious the answer is 4 because 6 x 4 = 24.

Check:

6/12 = 1/2

2/4 = 1/2

Hope this explanation helps.

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Rafael should buy 9 gift bags and 6 bows packet so, that she can have SAME NUMBER OF ITEMS, i.e 54.

Step-by-step explanation:

The gift bags are sold in the packs of 6.

So, the number of gift bags in 1 packet = 6 gift bags

The number of gift bags in 2 packet = 6 x 2 gift bags = 12 gift bags

The number of gift bags in 3 packet = 6 x 3 gift bags = 18 gift bags

And continuing similarly, we get

The number of gift bags in 9 packet = 6 x 9 gift bags = 54 gift bags.. (1)

The bows are sold in the pack of 9.

So, the number of bows in 1 packet = 9 bows

The number of bows in 2 packet = 9 x 2 bows = 18 bows

The number of bows in 3 packet = 9 x 3 bows = 27 bows

And continuing similarly, we get

The number of bows in 6 packet = 9 x 6 bows = 54 bows... (2)

Here, comparing both equations (1) and (2) , we get

The number of gift bags = 54 = The number of bows.

Hence, Rafael should buy 9 gift bags and 6 packet of bows so, that she can have SAME NUMBER OF ITEMS, i.e 54.

A golfer wants to determine if the type of driver she uses each year can be used to predict the amount of improvement in her gam

Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

The type of driver

Step-by-step explanation:

The term known as '' response variable'' is use in describing a variable that changes when you alter an examination or a test. Just like its name implies, it is the ''response'' that one gets when the other variable that is the Explanatory Variable are being altered.

In this question, the golfer will have to be changing the type of drivers that she is using in order to be able to know whether these changes in drivers will increase her game performance. Hence, the Explanatory Variable is the type of driver in which the golfer changes which is being use to define the performance of the golfer.
