Okay so lets look at what it says.

Opposite in the case of math almost always means negative.  So (2(-n)+5)*2.  This can be simplified to (-2n+5)*2 = 22 + n

Again, simplify it and its -4n+10 = 22 + n

Subtract 10 from both sides and its -4n = 12 + n

Add 4n to both sides and you get 0 = 12 + 5n

Subtract 12 from both sides and its 5n = -12.

Divided both sides by five and you have n = -12/5

PLEASE HELP ME LIKE RN THIS IS 7TH GRADE MATH BTW
natulia [17]

Answer:

for the third one 2/5 for the fourth one 3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first one, I put 10/25 as a fraction and found the least common multiple, which is 5. I then simplified, and got 2/5.

For the second one, I chose 3/5 because there are 3 friends whose names end in a, and 5 friends whose names do not end in a. My theory was that I took the friends and divided them into 2 groups by most common.

hope this helps if it doesn't I will correct myself :)
