Respuesta :
Cross products can be used to solve proportion
Solution:
Given that,
Claire correctly solved the proportion:
[tex]\frac{x}{4} = \frac{36}{16}[/tex]
using cross products to get the equation 16x = 144 and then dividing both sides by 16 to get x = 9
From given proportion,
[tex]\frac{x}{4} = \frac{36}{16}\\\\x \times 16 = 36 \times 4\\\\16x = 144\\\\Divide\ both\ sides\ by\ 16\\\\x = 9[/tex]
Thus the answer is correct
Thus , she can use cross products to solve the proportion because she gets the same answer if the solves it as shown
