Solve the following equation: 3x + 6 = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+6=9

3x=9-6

3x=2

x=1.5

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 6 from both sides of the equation, leaving 3x=3.

We put both sides over 3 to divide.

We are left with x=3

To test this, we substitute x with 1.

3(1)+6=9

3+6=9

9=9

1.4

2.3

step-by-step explanation:

the formula for the constant of variation is

y= kx

divide each side by x

y/x =kx/x

y/x =k

we know a and y

1.   y/x = k

4/1 =4

check the other values to make sure they are the same

8/2 = 4   12/3 =4   and 16/4 =4  

the constant of variation is 4

2.   y/x = k

3/1 =3

check the other values to make sure they are the same

6/2 = 3   9/3 =3   and 12/4 =3  

the constant of variation is 3

i believe the answer is d.

hope it you! : d
