The equation which gives the correct value of n, the number of GB, for which Plans A and B cost the same is 8n = 20 + 6(n-2)

To determine which equation gives the correct value of n, the number of GB, for which Plans A and B cost the same, we will first solve the equations.

  • For the first equation

8n = 20 + 6n

Collect like terms

8n - 6n = 20

2n = 20

Then, n = 20 ÷ 2

n = 10 GB

For Plan A

No initial fee and $8 for each GB

Here, 10GB will cost 10 × $8 = $80

For Plan B

$20 for the first 2GB and $6 for each additional GB after the first 2

Here, 10GB will cost $20 + (8 × $6) = $20 + $48 = $68

∴ Plans A and B do not cost the same here.

  • For the second equation

8n = 20(2n) + 6

First, clear the bracket

8n = 40n + 6

Now, collect like terms

40n - 8n = 6

42n = 6

∴ n = 6 ÷ 42

n = 1/7 GB

For Plan A

No initial fee and $8 for each GB

Here, 1/7GB will cost 1/7 × $8 = $1.14

For Plan B

$20 for the first 2GB and $6 for each additional GB after the first 2

Here, 1/7GB will cost $20 (Since the lowest cost is $20)

∴ Plans A and B do not cost the same here.

  • For the third equation

8n = 20 + 6(n-2)

First, clear the brackets

8n = 20 + 6n - 12

Now, collect like terms

8n - 6n = 20 - 12

2n = 8

n = 8 ÷ 2

n = 4 GB

For Plan A

No initial fee and $8 for each GB

Here, 4GB will cost 4× $8 = $32

For Plan B

$20 for the first 2GB and $6 for each additional GB after the first 2

Here, 4GB will cost $20 + (2 × $6) = $20 + $12 = $32

Plans A and B do not cost the same here.

∴ Plans A and B do cost the same here

  • For the fourth equation

8n = 20 + 2n + 6

Collect like terms

8n - 2n = 20 + 6

6n = 26

n = \frac{26}{6}

n = \frac{13}{3} GB or 4\frac{1}{3} GB

For Plan A

No initial fee and $8 for each GB

Here, \frac{13}{3} GB will cost \frac{13}{3}  × $8 = $34.67

For Plan B

$20 for the first 2GB and $6 for each additional GB after the first 2

Here, 4\frac{1}{3}GB will cost $20 + ( 2\frac{1}{3}× $6) = $20 + $14 = $34

∴ Plans A and B do not cost the same here.

Hence, the equation which gives the correct value of n, the number of GB, for which Plans A and B cost the same is 8n = 20 + 6(n-2)

HELP PLEASE!!

Answer:

You need to have both the opposite and adjacent side of the right angled triangle. Tan = Opp/Adj

Step-by-step explanation:

Tangents are pretty much everywhere. A good example is maybe a slide at the playground. You’d need the tangent to figure out the angle of the slide and how it is.

The radius from the center of a circle to the point of tangency point shows that it would be perpendicular to the tangent line considering that anything with a radius is circular and the tangent line is… a line, making it impossible to be parallel.
