Answer:

n = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

You will want to add all common factors with each other.

So that would be n + 3n + 5n which would be 9n.

Then -8 + 1 would be -7. So now it should be 9n - 7.

You are going to set 56 equal to 9n - 7, so that would be 9n - 7 = 56.

After that, you will have to leave 9n alone by itself, so you would have to add 7 to both sides. Your final equation should be 9n = 63.

After that, you should divide both sides by 9 since you want n alone.

So 63 ÷ 9 would be 7. So at the end, <u>n = 7.</u>

A car travels at a speed of 85 mph how far will it travel in 15 minutes ​
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

106.25 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

since the car travels at 85 miles per hour we divide it by 60 seconds in order to find how many miles is it to get in a minute

=> 85mph ÷ 60

divide 85 by 60

=> 1.416

multiply 1.416 by 15 to get how many miles it to go in 15 minutes

=> 21.25

then add it to 85

=> 106.25

Two years ago, Rita was three times older than Cheryl. In 3 years, Rita will be twice older than Cheryl. How old are the girls n
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

Cheryl's age = x = 7 years

Rita's age = y = 17 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Cheryl's age = x

Rita's age = y

Two years ago, Rita was three times older than Cheryl

(y - 2) = 3(x - 2)

y - 2 = 3x - 6

y = 3x - 6 + 2

= 3x - 4

y = 3x - 4

In 3 years, Rita will be twice older than Cheryl

(y + 3) = 2(x + 3)

y + 3 = 2x + 6

y = 2x + 6 - 3

= 2x + 3

y = 2x + 3

Equate both equations

3x - 4 = 2x + 3

Collect like terms

3x - 2x = 3 + 4

x = 7 years

Substitute x = 7 into

y = 2x + 3

= 2(7) + 3

= 14 + 3

= 17

y = 17 years

Cheryl's age = x = 7 years

Rita's age = y = 17 years
