Mathematics

LUCKY_DIMON [66]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Simplifying

5n + -9 + 6 = -20

Reorder the terms:

-9 + 6 + 5n = -20

Combine like terms: -9 + 6 = -3

-3 + 5n = -20

Solving

-3 + 5n = -20

Solving for variable 'n'.

Move all terms containing n to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '3' to each side of the equation.

-3 + 3 + 5n = -20 + 3

Combine like terms: -3 + 3 = 0

0 + 5n = -20 + 3

5n = -20 + 3

Combine like terms: -20 + 3 = -17

5n = -17

Divide each side by '5'.

n = -3.4

Simplifying

n = -3.4

"An integer is negative if and only if it is less than zero."
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

  • <em>An integer is not negative if and only if it is not less than zero.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Observing each statement individually:

  • <em>An integer is negative if and only if it is not less than zero</em>

A number that is NOT less than 0 is greater than zero. Negative numbers are less than 0, so this is clearly incorrect.

  • <em>An integer is not negative if and only if it is less than zero.</em>

A number that is NOT negative is positive. Positive integers are integers greater than zero, so this is also incorrect.

  • <em>An integer is not negative if and only if it is not less than zero.</em>

A number that is NOT negative is positive. A number that is NOT less than zero is greater than zero, or positive. This statement is correct.

  • <em>An integer is less than zero if and only if it is not negative.</em>

A number that is less than zero is negative, and this statement claims that a number less is only less than zero if it is NOT negative. This is incorrect.
