I think the answer is A sorry if wrong
3(n-8)=2n-2
3n-24=2n-2
Subtract 2n from both sides to get
n-24=-2
Adding 24 to both sides gives you
n=22. The number therefore is 22. Hope this helps!!!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation 1 and 4
Fraction division is basically multiplication of a reciprocal.
For example (1/4)/(1/8) = (1/4)x(8/1)=2
Multiplication of the answer and the piece that divides (in this case 2 x 1/8), you should get the piece that is being divided (in this case 1/4). If that is correct, then your division is correct.
Let the time = x
Distance = Speed x time
One train is 75x, the other train 85x
Add together to equal total distance:
75x + 85x = 384
Simplify:
160x = 384
Divide both sides by 160:
x = 384 / 160
x = 2.4 hours
