Solve for n: -16 + 3n = -(8 +5n)

Mathematics

-16 + 3n = -(8 + 5n)

The - sign outside the parentheses acts as a -1, and so it is distributed to each term in the parentheses.

-16 + 3n = -8 - 5n

+16

3n = 8 - 5n

+5n

8n = 8

/8

n = 1

What is the vertex of the parabola whose equation is y = (x + 1)^2 + 3?
dalvyx [7]
The y-value of the vertex is positive 3, as shown by the +3 on the right hand side of the equation, and the x-value is -1, from the (x+1)^2 (remember, when the number is inside the brackets, flip the sign) The vertex would be (-1, 3) 

If you are looking for a rigorous answer (calculus), we must find the mininum point of the equation: f(x) = (x+1)^2 + 3 f
f'(x) = 2(x+1) = 2x + 2
2x + 2 = 0 
x = -1
f(1) = (-1 + 1)^2 + 3
f(1) = 0 + 3 = 3
(-1, 3)

2. Gerald was given the following problem to solve for the length of the "?". He has made a mistake in his work.
Degger [83]

Answer:

x = 18.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Gerald's answer is almost correct.  

He just needs to switch the 14 and the x.

it should be

24/x = 18/14

solve for x by cross multiplication

18x = (24)(14)

18x = 336

x = 18.7
