Solve the following proportions p/18= 8/72 pls help

p = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

=

to work with smaller numbers you can look to reduce

for example, 8/72 can be reduced to 1/9

=

now you can cross-multiply:

9p = 18

p = 18/9 which is 2

hello from mrbilldoesmath!

answer:   x (x+6)^2, choice b

discussion:

factor x out of the equation:

x^3 + 12x^2 + 36x = x (x^2 + 12x + 36).

note that 6+6 = 12 and 6*6 = 36 so the above factors into:

x (x+6)^2

which is choice b

you,
