Which phrase represents the algebraic expression 3p+6/7p-9

The answer is the sum of three times a number and six, divided by the difference of seven times the number and nine

Step-by-step explanation:

3p = three x a number

7p = seven x a number

3p+6 = sum of three x a number plus six

7p-9 = difference of seven x the number minus nine

(3p+6)/(7p-9) = sum of three times x number plus six, divided by the difference of seven x the number - nine

dalila is incorrect. the whisker on the left is very long, going all the way out to 5. the whisker goes from 5 to 30, so it has a spread of 25. the rest of the box plot values are closer together, so 5 is an outlier

we have three similar triangles, because each has a right angle and shares an angle.   let's write the angles in order: opposite to short leg, long leg, hypotenuse.

cab similar to bad similar to cbd

or as ratios,

ca: ab: cb = ba: ad: bd = cb: bd: cd

we also know

ac = ad + cd

(ad+cd): ab: cb = ba: ad: bd = cb: bd: cd

(ad+cd)/cb=cb/cd

we have cb=6, ad=5 and seek x=cd.

we reject the negative root and conclude x=4

answer: 4
