Answer:
n=3
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
8n + 12 + -5n = 21
Reorder the terms:
12 + 8n + -5n = 21
Combine like terms: 8n + -5n = 3n
12 + 3n = 21
Solving
12 + 3n = 21
Solving for variable 'n'.
Move all terms containing n to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-12' to each side of the equation.
12 + -12 + 3n = 21 + -12
Combine like terms: 12 + -12 = 0
0 + 3n = 21 + -12
3n = 21 + -12
Combine like terms: 21 + -12 = 9
3n = 9
Divide each side by '3'.
n = 3
Simplifying
n = 3

This is more interesting than it might appear. If you consider the second derivative of any quadratic it will be the a</span><span> value. The second derivative represents acceleration, so the larger the a value the faster the increase of velocity and accordingly a quicker progression towards positive or negative infinity.

Y intercept occurs when x = o so it is -2(0-3) + 4 = -2
x intercepts:-
-2(x - 3)^2 + 4 = 0
(x - 3)^2 = -4/-2 = 2
x - 3 = +/- sqrt2
x = 3 + sqrt2 and 3- sqrt2
Answer: 16 of the students are girls.
Step-by-step explanation:
3/5 = boys —> 60% of students.
2/5 = girls —> 40% of students.
40% = 0.4
G = 40 * 0.4
G = 16
