The balanced scale represents the equation: 3x + 1 = 2x + 4 If two x blocks are subtracted from the right side and one numbered block is subtracted from the left side. What process will balance the scale? A) subtract two x blocks from the left side and subtract one numbered block from the left side B) subtract two x block from the left side and subtract one numbered block from the right side C) subtract two x blocks from the right side and subtract one numbered block from the left side D) subtract two x block from the right side and subtract one numbered block from the right side

answer: b)

step-by-step explanation:

its a dot plot because since the score is not high numbers.

the largest number of the four options is 1.8 x 10-2

you have it in scientific notation.

1.80 x 10-6   = 0.00000180

1.80 x 10-4   = 0.000180 (bigger, or "less small", than the former one)

so

1.8 x 10-2       = 0.0180. as you see. the "less small", or the biggest one of them all.

as you have negative exponent, it means you are dividing 1.8 by 100 (i.e. moving the dot towards left, two times).

if you had positive exponent for the scientific notation, power of tenths, you would be multiplying times 100 (moving the dot towards right) as below:

1.8 x (10)2 = 180

so. if you have negative exponent in scientific notation, move the dot toward left. if it is positive, toward right as many times the exponent tells you.

step-by-step explanation:

the ratio of red paint to blue paint is always 9/7. that means that, whatever x's value, (4x+12)/(4x-4) has that same ratio. so, set up an equation and cross-multiply to solve for x:

9/7 = (4x+12)/(4x-4)

9(4x-4) = 7(4x+12)

36x - 36 = 28x + 84

8x - 36 = 84

8x = 120

x = 15
