4n+8=2(n+6)
Now isolate the n on one side of the equation:
4n+8=2n+12(distribution of the 2)
4n=2n+4(combine like terms)
2n=4(combine like variables)
N=2(isolate the n)
The answer is 2
Good luck!
Answer: Arun is now 20, Shree is 10 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
In the system of equations Arun's age is a. Shree is s
a = 2s .(current age equation) Subtract 5 from each for five years ago,
a-5 = 3(s-5) . Substitute 2s for a in the second equation
2s -5 = 3(s-5) distribute and reorganize
2s-5 = 3s -15 . 15 - 5 = 3s - 2s
10 = s . Substitute into the first equation to find a
a = 2(10)
a = 20
5 years ago Shree was 5 and Arun was 15

Answer:
a = 5/4
Step-by-step explanation:
To make the second number in this ratio be 1, you need to multiply the whole ratio by 7/4:
(7/4)(5/7) : (7/4)(4/7) = 5/4 : 1 = a : 1
a = 5/4
The last one represents a function ..
