First start off by deciding which term will be easier to work with. This case, it's the right side.
combine the like terms: 5p and 3p to make 8p
now you want to have everything over to one side, so add the 1 and subtract p to the right side.
you should now have 7p+7=0. Now take the GCF which is 7 and divide it by both terms. now you should have 7(p+1)=0.
Begin your tree chart and set 7=0, which is not a solution so cross it off. Then solve p+1=0. Subtract one on both sides and p= -1.

Nathan just bought a car. He models the value, V, in dollars, of the car after t years as V(t)=21,000(0.861)^t. Based on this mo
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

Value of the car is decreasing by 13.9% each year.

Step-by-step explanation:

This equation tells us V(t) is the value of the car after a certain time in years, $21,000 is the initial value of the car.  What we need to focus on is on the 0.861 part of this equation.  This means that the price of the car is worth 0.861 or 86.1% of what it was worth the year prior, this means that the price of the car is decreasing over time.  By how much is it decreasing? Well if we consider 1 to mean 100% (since 100 / 100 =1) then we have 100%-86.1%=13.9%.  This means that the value of the car is decreasing 13.9% each year.

Solve the rational equation 1/n-4 - 2/n = 3/4-n
Leokris [45]

Answer:

n=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation: \[\frac{1}{n-4}-\frac{2}{n}=\frac{3}{4-n}\]

Simplifying the Left Hand Side of the equation by taking the LCM of the denominator terms:

\[\frac{n}{n*(n-4)}-\frac{2*(n-4)}{n*(n-4)}=\frac{3}{4-n}\]

=> \[\frac{n - 2*(n-4)}{n*(n-4)}=\frac{3}{4-n}\]

=> \[\frac{n - 2n + 8}{n*(n-4)}=\frac{3}{4-n}\]

=> \[\frac{8 - n}{n*(n-4)}=\frac{3}{4-n}\]

=> \[(8-n)*(4-n) =n*(n-4)*3\]

=> \[n-8 =3n\]

=> \[2n =8\]

=> n = 4

alexandr402 [8]
Loretta:
Average driving speed = 55 mph
Time = 4 hours
Distance traveled = 55*4 = 220 miles

Dad:
Average driving speed = 65 mph
Let x =  hours driven
Distance traveled = 65x miles

The length of the trip is 610 miles, therefore
65x + 220 = 610
65x = 390
x = 6  hours

Answer: Loretta's dad drove for 6 hours.
