Answer:
n=-10/3
Step-by-step explanation:
"Twice the difference of a number n and seven is equal to four less than the product of five and the number n" translates into 2(n-7) = 5n - 4. To solve, isolate the variable n.
2(n-7) = 5n - 4
2n - 14 = 5n - 4
2n - 10 = 5n
-10 = 3n
-10/3 = n
Answer:
-3
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
If you choose any value for k other than 6, that will be give you the one solution.
If k=6, you have no solutions because the lines will be parallel.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are going to put each of this in y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
kx+2y=5
Subtract kx on both sides:
2y=-kx+5
Divide both sides by 2:
y=(-k/2)x+(5/2)
The slope is -k/2 and the y-intercept is 5/2
3x+y=1
Subtract 3x on both sides:
y=-3x+1
The slope is -3 and the y-intercept is 1.
We want the system to have one solution so we want the slopes to be difference.
So we don't want (-k/2)=(-3).
Multiply both sides by -2: k=6.
We won't want k to be 6.
I'm going to assume that you are asking how a number can have two factors.
So, a factor is an integer (non-fractional/decimal number) you multiply by another integer to get the actual number.
Well, let's look at the number 4. The number four has the following factors:
1, 2, 4
In a 'rainbow' style, you match the two outer numbers, then the two next inner numbers, and so on.
Because the number '2' is the one in the center and there is no other number to multiply it by, it must multiply by itself to reach the number 4.
Well, you must have two numbers to actually multiply together, so every number has two factors: 1, and itself (except for 0).
I hope this helps, and good luck :)
