C.
(I’m pretty sure but if I’m wrong I apologize in advance)
1/3n - 8 = -13 <== ur equation
1/3n = -13 + 8
1/3n = - 5
n = -5 * 3
n = -15
check..
1/3(-15) - 8 = -13
-5 - 8 = -13
-13 = -13 (correct)
so the number (n) = -15
Answer: Part a) 375 pounds, Part b) 8 words
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
<u />
Since n represents the number of words there are, we can plug in 20 for n into the equation to get:
C = 15*20 + 75 pounds
C = 300 + 75 pounds
C = 375 pounds
b)
Since C represents the cost of the advert, we can plug in 195 for C into the equation to get:
195 = 15n + 75
Subtract 75 from both sides:
120 = 15n
Divide both sides by 15:
n = 8 words
