What could be the answers to this question? It’s very confusing!

First is

Second is

Step-by-step explanation:

Open up equations and do FOIL method.

First equation:

(x + 2y)(x + 2y)

x^2 + 2xy + 2xy + 4y^2

Second equation:

(y + 2x)(y + 2x)

y^2 +2xy + 2xy + 4x^2

if you are looking for the unit rate then the answer would be 9 because unit rate is distance divided by time.

step-by-step explanation:

proportions are fractions that equal to each other. so if two fractions are the same, they are proportional.

let's check the answers to see if they are proportional.

question a is not proportional because you can't turn 1.5/3 to 3/9. if you try to multiply 1.5/3 by 2 or 3, you wont get 3/9. it's impossible to make the fractions the same.

question b is not proportional because you can't turn 22/33 to 4/6. 33 can't go into 6.

question c is proportional because when you multiply 2 and 3 by 71, you would get 142/213, and those fractions equal to each other

question d is proportional because when you divide 14 and 7 by 2, you would end up with 7/3.5, and those fractions equal to each other.
