Answer:

n = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

-8n + 4 (1 + 5n) = -6n - 14

-8n + 4 + 20n = -6n - 14 Distribute

12n + 4 = -6n - 14 Combine Like Terms

18n + 4 = -14 Add 6 on Both Sides

18n = -18 Subtract 4 on Both Sides

n = -1 Divide Both Sides by 18

80 people were asked which was their favourite animal.

Alex787 [66]

Answer:

(a)Cat

(b)8 animals

Step-by-step explanation:

From the attached diagram:

Let the $\square$ be x.

Half of $\square$ =x/2

From the pictogram, we then have:

$Cat = x+\frac{x}{4} \\Dog=x+\frac{3x}{4}\\Giraffe=2x+\frac{x}{2}\\Monkey =x+\frac{x}{2}\\Dolphin=3x$

Therefore:

$x+\frac{x}{4} +x+\frac{3x}{4}+2x+\frac{x}{2}+x+\frac{x}{2}+3x=80\\8x+\frac{x}{4}+\frac{3x}{4}+\frac{x}{2}+\frac{x}{2}=80\\10x=80\\x=8$

So we have the following numbers

$Cat = x+\frac{x}{4} =8+\frac{8}{4}=10\\Dog=x+\frac{3x}{4}=8+\frac{3*8}{4}=14\\Giraffe=2x+\frac{x}{2}=2*8+\frac{8}{2}=20\\Monkey =x+\frac{x}{2}=8+\frac{8}{2}=12\\Dolphin=3x=3*8=24$

(a)Cat was the least popular

(b) $\square$ represents 8 animals

(c)

Number of People who preferred giraffe=20

Number of People who preferred dogs=14

Difference=20-14=6

Therefore, 6 more people preferred giraffes than dogs.

What's 3 over 10 times 1over 6 ?

velikii [3]

$\frac{3}{10}$ × $\frac{1}{6}$
To multiply, you multiply across. So it would be 3×1=3 and 10×6=60
Which will result in $\frac{3}{60}$ but in order to simplify it, you find a common factor. The common factor is 3. 3÷3=1 and 60÷3=20
The answer is $\frac{1}{20}$
