–1/2(2n + 4) + 6 = –9 + 4(2n + 1)

1 answer:

3 0

Simplify by combining like terms to
-n+4=8n-5
subtract 8n from both sides
-n+4-8n=8n-5-8n
-9n+4=-5
subtract 4 from both sides
-9n+4-4=-5-4
-9n=-9
Divide both sides by -9
-9n/-9=-9/-9
n=1
hope this helps!

The number of kilograms of water in a human body varies directly as the mass of the body. A 93-kg person contains 62-kg of water

slava [35]

We know that the variation is proportianal, that is we can relate the quantities as:

$y=kx$

where y is the mass of the body and x is the mass of water. From the values given we have that:

$\begin{gathered} 93=62k \\ k=\frac{93}{62} \\ k=\frac{3}{2} \end{gathered}$

hence the constant of proportionality is 3/2. Now, if the mass of the water is 75, then the mass of the body is:

$\frac{3}{2}\cdot75=112.5$

Therefore, the mass of the body is 112.5 kilograms

Find the missing side of a right triangle a b c

iren2701 [21]

Answer:

Use Pythagorean Theorem.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find any side of a right angled triangle, we use Pythagorean Theorem. It states that the square of hypotenuse is equal to the sum of squares of it's sides.

Let hypotenuse is a

Perpendicular is b

and base is c

According to the theorem:

a²= b² + c²

Add values and solve for the unknown variable / side.

If you had added the problem, I would have elaborated more but still this will help you out.
