You can put this solution on YOUR website!
did i solve this proportion correctly?
\n" ); document.write( "(2x+4)/5=30/25
\n" ); document.write( "(25)(2x+4)=(5)(30)
\n" ); document.write( "-------------
\n" ); document.write( "25*(2x+4) is 50x + 100, not 29. You would have gotten it right, even tho you went the long way around, except for that.
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "50x+29=150
\n" ); document.write( "50x+29-29=150-29
\n" ); document.write( "50x=121
\n" ); document.write( "(50x)/50=(121)/50
\n" ); document.write( "x=2.42
\n" ); document.write( "------------------
\n" ); document.write( "No.
\n" ); document.write( "(2x+4)/5=30/25 = 6/5
\n" ); document.write( "2x+4 = 6
\n" ); document.write( "2x = 2
\n" ); document.write( "x = 1
\n" ); document.write( "I don't know why you call it a \"proportion\", it's an equation.\r
