Answer:

Answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

a(n-2)+5=bn

Add -bn to both sides

an-2a+5+(-bn)=bn+(-bn)

an-bn-2a+5=0

add two a to both sides

an−bn−2a+5+(2a)=0+(2a)

an−bn+5=2a

Add -5 to both sides

an−bn+5+(-5)=2a+(-5)

an−bn=2a−5

Factor out our variable

n(a−b)=2a−5

Divide both sides by a-b

n(a-b)/a-b=2a-5/a-b

n=2a-5/a-b

Hope this helps

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

Domain: (−∞,∞),{x|x∈R}

Range: (−∞,∞),{y|y∈R}

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the domain by finding where the function is defined. The range is the set of values that correspond with the domain.

Domain: (−∞,∞),{x|x∈R}

Range: (−∞,∞),{y|y∈R}

Tanya has a garden with a trench around it. The garden is a rectangle with length 2.5m and width 2m. The trench and the garden t

Drupady [299]

Answer:

5.5m^2

the area of just the trench is 5.5 m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The Area of trench only is the total area(trench and garden) minus the Area of garden

Area of trench only = total area(trench and garden) - Area of garden

Area = length × breadth

Substituting the given dimensions;

Total area = 3.5 × 3 = 10.5 m^2

Area of garden = 2.5×2 = 5 m^2

Area of trench only = 10.5 m^2 - 5 m^2

Area of trench only = 5.5m^2

the area of just the trench is 5.5 m^2
