So this is what the question is saying 
7-2n  is equal to n-2

Assume the number is x
now, we will translate the written english into equation:
seven minus 2 times the number is 7-2x
the number minus 2 is x-2
we will equate these two equations (the question says that they are equal) ans solve for x as follows:
7-2x=x-2
7+2=x+2x
9=3x
x=3
the required number is 3

What is PA <br> Enter your answer in the box
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

P is the in-center

⇒PA=PE=PD because they are in-radius of the in-circle

We know that, tangent segments drawn from a point outside the circle are always equal in length

⇒DK=EK=7.2

In right triangle PKE,

using Pythagoras' Theorem : PK^{2}=PE^{2}+KE^{2}

⇒PE^{2}=PK^{2}-KE^{2}

⇒PE=\sqrt{PK^{2}-KE^{2} }

⇒PE^{2}=\sqrt{7.8^{2}-7.2^{2}} }

⇒PE=3

Therefore, PA=3

Sonia is standing 20 centimeters from the door.brice is standing 20 meters from the door.who is standing further from the door
Sever21 [200]
Hello!

Brice is standing further away from the door, because 20 metres are greater than 20 centimetres.

A lot greater, actually, because 20 metres = 2,000 centimetres.

Simplify g^1/2 * g^1/2 using the radical form.
guapka [62]

Answer:

√g *√g = g

Step-by-step explanation:

recall that any number or variable to the power of 1/2 can also be written as that variable or number under the radical.

So, we then have

√g * √g

Recall that when we multiply radicals, we multiply what is under our radicals together and then combine them under a new radical

√g * √g = √(g * g)

This gives us √(g²)

recall that the square root of a number or variable squared will merely result in the number or variable by itself (as these are reciprocate equations)

√(g²) = g
