8 = 8v - 4 (v + 8)
Distribute the 4 through the parentheses
8 = 8v - 4v - 32
combine like terms
8 = 4v - 32
add 32 to both sides
8 + 32 = 4v -32 + 32
combine like terms
40 = 4v
divide each side by 4
40/10 = v
4 = v
v= 4
Answer:
y=3r+5
Step-by-step explanation:
Break up the sentance.
Capon city has 5 more than 3 times as many residents as harbor city.
The sentance above can be written like this: y=5+3x. Since they want r to represent the number of people in Harbor city, use r in place of x.
Capon city=y
has=equal sign
5 more=+5
3 times as many=3r
y=3r+5
Solve the equation of the function for n.
a(n) = 3n - 20
a = 3n - 20
a + 20 = 3n
(a + 20)/3 = n
n = (a + 20)/3
n(a) = (a + 20)/3
4-7x=5
+7x +7x
4= 12x
/12 /12
x= 4/12
x= 1/3
