Hello There!

Simply subtract them:
5n - 2n = 3n.

The answer is 3n.

Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck :)

By dividing both by 'n', a common term between them, the simplest form of your expression would equal 5-2, which then simplifies again to equal 3

5n-2n/n
5-2
3

Hope this helps!

One of the tables shows a proportional relationship. Graph the line representing the proportional relationship from this table i

Mkey [24]

Answer:

Table C

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form $y/x=k$ or $y=kx$

Find the value of the constant of proportionality in each table

Table A

For $x=-2, y=-4$ ------> $k=-4/-2=2$

For $x=-1, y=-3$ ------> $k=-3/-1=3$

This table has different values of k

therefore

the table A does not represent a proportional relationship

Table B

For $x=-2, y=-4$ ------> $k=-4/-2=2$

For $x=-1, y=-2$ ------> $k=-2/-1=2$

For $x=1, y=3$ ------> $k=3/1=3$

This table has different values of k

therefore

the table B does not represent a proportional relationship

Table C

For $x=-2, y=-4$ ------> $k=-4/-2=2$

For $x=-1, y=-2$ ------> $k=-2/-1=2$

For $x=1, y=2$ ------> $k=2/1=2$

For $x=2, y=4$ ------> $k=4/2=2$

This table has the same value of k

therefore

the table C represent a proportional relationship

Table D

For $x=-2, y=-4$ ------> $k=-4/-2=2$

For $x=-1, y=-2$ ------> $k=-2/-1=2$

For $x=1, y=2$ ------> $k=2/1=2$

For $x=2, y=6$ ------> $k=6/2=3$

This table has different values of k

therefore

the table D does not represent a proportional relationship

3. At the start of summer, Ben has $250 . He takes a summer

earnstyle [38]

Answer:

Week 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Ben has $250 in the beginning. He saves $150 per week.

y = 150x + 250

Tim has $1,650 in the beginning. He spends $200 per week.

y = 1650 - 200x

We are trying to find which x-value produces the same y-value for both equations. You can do this by setting both equations equal to each other.

150x + 250 = 1650 - 200x

(150x + 250) + 200x = (1650 - 200x) + 200x

350x + 250 = 1650

(350x + 250) - 250 = (1650) - 250

350x = 1400

(350x)/350 = (1400)/350

x = 4

By week 4, they will have the same amount of money.
