Answer:
n = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
you've accidently substracted 6n from 12n when you were supposed to be adding them. (-6n becomes +6n when brought to the otherside of the equal sign)
.05n + $28 = $50.50
(.05n = $22.50)100
5n = 2250
n= 450 calls
Answer:
2 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
x = 13
subtract x from both sides of the equation
6 = 2x - x - 7
6 = x - 7
add 7 to both sides
6 + 7 = x ⇒ x = 13
As a check
substitute this value into the equation and if both sides are equal then it is the solution
left side = 13 + 6 = 19
right side = (2 × 13) - 7 = 26 - 7 = 19
hence x = 13 is the solution
Answer:
- <em>Yes, an answer can be incorrect even it it looks reasonable.</em>
Explanation:
Yes, an answer can be incorrect even if it looks reasonable, for two main reasons:
- The assumptions (premises or statements) on which the reasoning is based are wrong.
- The reasoning sounds good but it is a fallacy.
To avoid the first condition you must be sure about the facts, which may be information from an experiment that you performed or from a source. In order for an answer be correct, make sure your premises are true.
Dealing with the second condition, a fallacy is an argument that seems strictly logical but is misleading: you must learn which reasonings are really valid; this is, that the conclusion unequivocally follows from the premises.
There are rules for the arguments to be valid, and that is the object of logic study.
Fallacies are sometimes used by those interested in supporting a point of view without having true reason on their side. You should have some knowledges about logic to avoid being victim of the fallacies, which can drive you to make wrong decisions.
