Answer:

A) 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the width: 6 and multiply it 3 times because it says triple.

That gives you: 6 * 3 = 18

Then subtract 4 because it says four inches less than.

That gives you: 18 - 4 = 14

Answer:

Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the box is = x inches

Let the width of the box = y inches

"The length of the box is 4 inches less than triple of its width"

x = 3y - 4

"Box is 6 inches wide"

y = 6 inches

By putting y = 6 in the equation

x = 3×6 - 4

  = 18 - 4

  = 14 inches.

Therefore, Length of the box is 14 inches.

Option A. is the answer.

Make n the subject of the formula
kogti [31]

Answer:

\mathsf{ \frac{m + 21}{5} = n }

Step-by-step explanation:

To make "n" the subject of the formula, rearrange the formula so it begins with " n = "

To isolate the variable "n", you need to inverse the other terms on that side of the equation where "n" really is.

=> m = 5n - 21

  • <em>there's</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em> </em><em>"</em><em>-21</em><em>"</em><em> </em><em>next</em><em> </em><em>to</em><em> </em><em>"</em><em>5n</em><em>"</em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>inverse</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>subtraction</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>addition</em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>so</em><em> </em><em>add</em><em> </em><em>21</em><em> </em><em>on</em><em> </em><em>both</em><em> </em><em>sides</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>equation</em><em>.</em><em> </em>

=> m + 21 = 5n <u>-</u> <u>21</u> + <u>21</u>

=> m+ 21 = 5n

  • <em>There's</em><em> </em><em>also</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em> </em><em>5</em><em> </em><em>attached</em><em> </em><em>to</em><em> </em><em>n</em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>that</em><em> </em><em>means</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>multiplication</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>n</em><em> </em><em>with</em><em> </em><em>5</em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>inverse</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>multiplication</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>division</em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>so</em><em> </em><em>dividing</em><em> </em><em>both</em><em> </em><em>sides</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>equation</em><em> </em><em>by</em><em> </em><em>5</em>

<em>\mathsf{ \frac{m + 21}{5} = n }</em>
