1) 3n+1=16-2n - add 2n to both sides - you should now be left with 5n+1=16 (remember the 2n gets canceled out) - subtract 1 from both sides - you should now be left with 5n=15 - now you divide by 5 to get n by itself - 15 divided by 5 is 3 - n=3 2) substitute n with 3 in to the original equation - so 3n+1=16-2n now becomes 3(5)+1=16-2(3) - you should get 10 for both so 10=10 3) according to the segment addition postualte , XR + YR = XY. - add 10+10 which stands for the lengths of XR and YR Answer - XY = 20

The product of two mixed numbers that are each between 5 and 4 is the product between 16 and 25
Alchen [17]
Hmm
that is a true statement, the product of any 2 mixed numbers between 4 and 5, will be between 16 and 25

we can show that it is true by testing the bounds
if the number is 4 and the other is 4, then it is 16
we aren't allowed to do 4 since it isn't mixed and it equals 4
that is the lower bbound

if the numbes 5 and 5 are used, then it is 25
we arene't allowed to use 5 since it isn't mixed and it equals 5

so the product of any 2 numbers between 4 and 5 will be between 16 and 25

so pick any random one

4 and 3/4 times 4 and 5/323
