Which expression can be simplified to the form 3\y + 3, where y is a positive integer?

Choice B)

========================================================

Explanation:

Let's rewrite the given expression like so

We can see that the radicand is a multiple of 9 since 9 is a factor.

This immediately rules out choices C and D because 75 and 84 are not multiples of 9.

-------------

Plug in the smallest positive integer (1) for y to get

The radicand 36 is larger than the radicand for choice A (18), meaning we can rule out choice A. There's no way to get a radicand of 18 since y = 1 is the smallest we can go for.

We can however get to 63 by using y = 4

Showing that choice B is of the form where y is a positive integer, specifically when y = 4.

i can you with this question sweetie!

step-by-step explanation:

answer set (b) 0.5, 3/4 80% is in order from least to greatest.  

step-by-step explanation:

in order to compare rational numbers to each other, it is much easier if they are in the same form.   typically, the best form in which to evaluate rational numbers is in decimals.   in order to convert a percent to a decimal, you would divide the given percentage by 100.   you can also accomplish the conversion by moving the decimal point over two places to the left.   for example, the decimal value of 80% is 80/100, or 0.8.   in order to convert a fraction to a decimal, you need to divide the numerator by the denominator.   for example, 3/4 is 0.75.   so, for choice (b) 0.5 3/4 (0.75), 80% (0.8) is the only choice in which the numbers are in order from least to greatest.
