Let us consider the number to be 'n'.

<u>Given condition</u> :

  • 7n + 8 = 5n + 4

<u>Subtract '5n' from each side</u> :

  • 7n + 8 - 5n = 5n + 4 - 5n
  • 2n + 8 = 4

<u>Subtract '8' from each side</u> :

  • 2n + 8 - 8 = 4 - 8
  • 2n = -4

<u>Divide '2' from each side</u> :

  • 2n/2 = -4/2
  • \fbox {n = -2}

∴ The number is -2.

Dr. Oswald conducts a study examining the relationship between the number of friends one has and the experience of daily stress
Alina [70]

Answer:

I believe the answer is: These scores are more likely to have an effect because of the large sample size

In asking about satisfaction, the data could only come from the life experiences or personal principle of the individuals in the samples. Because of this, the scores would have relatively same effect regardless of the amount of sample size that the researchers use.

Solve equations: 3|x+4|=6<br><br> | = absolute value
Anestetic [448]

Absolute values are a way of finding a distant from zero, which means there will be 2 answers; one will be positive, and the other will be negative.

|<em>3x - 4</em>| = 5<em>and</em> |3<em>x - 4</em> = a^5 Because you need 2 answers, you have to make 5 positive and negative.

Another way to write this equation would be...

5=|3x-4|=—5

Now lets continue...

5=3x-4=—5

Add 4 to both sides...

9=3x=—1

Now divide by 3...

3=x= -1/3

So the solution is...

X={-1/3  3}
