Answer:

n = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

N = variable

Equation: 3n - 18 = 2n

Solve:

3n - 18 = 2n

3n = 2n + 18 Add 18 to both sides

3n - 2n = 18 Subtract 2n from both sides

n = 18

The equation of the graph shown plotted in the coordinate plane is y = x + 4. What statement is not true about this graph? A. Ea

frez [133]

Definately option C

As it's mentioned y=x+4 it must be function
So in function every domain has its unique range.
Hence here the slope is not constant

The graph shown is a parabola which is not y=x+4

So option C is wrong

One cubic meter of water weighs approximately 2200 pounds. There are 100 cm in one meter. If you have a box-shaped fish tank tha

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

158.4 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

first find the volume of the tank

$V = 30 \times 30 \times 80$

$V = 72000 cm^3$

to convert this to m^3 we know that 1m = 100cm

$V = 72000 cm^3 \times \left(\dfrac{1\,\text{m}}{100\,\text{cm}}\right)^3$

$V = 72000 cm^3 \times \left(\dfrac{1\,\text{m}^3}{100^3\,\text{cm}^3}\right)$

the cm^3 cancel out.

$V = \dfrac{72000}{100^3} m^3$

$V = 0.072\,m^3$

by simply converting the side-lengths to meters beforehand can give you this answer directly:

$V = 0.3 \times 0.3 \times 0.8 = 0.072 m^3$

it is given that 1 meter cube of water weighs about 2200 pounds.

$1\,m^3 = 2200 \,\text{lb}$

multiply both sides with 0.072 to find our answer:

$1\,m^3 \times 0.072 = 2200 \times 0.072 \,\text{lb}$

$0.072\,m^3 = 158.4 \,\text{lb}$

hence the weight of the water in the tank would be 158.4 pounds!
