Explanation:
2x-6: 6x-4
Use any value to represent x
Let's use 1
2(1)-6: 6(1)-4
2-6 : 6-4
-4 : 2
Write in simplest form by dividing by 2
-2:1
Now do the same in all the answers above, use 1 for the value of x
1. - 2:1 is equivalent
2. 1-3 : 3(1)-2 = - 2:1 Equivalent
3. 3(1) : 1 = 3 :1 not equivalent
4. 4(1) - 12 : 12(1) - 8 = - 8 : 4 (
Simplify by dividing by 4, you get - 2 :1 equivalent
5. 1-1 : 1 - 2 = 0 : - 1 not equivalent
