Answer:

n = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation: 17.1 = 5.7 * n

Divide both sides by 5.7 to get n by itself.

Step 1: Divide both sides by 5.7

17.1 = 5.7 * n

17.1 / 5.7 = 5.7 * n / 5.7

divide divide

3 = n

We are given the following equation and want to solve for the unknown variable, n:

$17.1=5.7 \times n$

To solve for an unknown variable, we want to isolate the variable by doing operations to both sides of the equation:

This includes adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing both sides by the same value

For this equation, we'll divide both sides by 5.7 to isolate the unknown variable n

$17.1 \boxed{\div 5.7} = 5.7 \times n \boxed{\div 5.7}$

After dividing both sides by 5.7 and simplifying, we get:

$3=n$

The next step is a bit tedious, but in math, you usually want to have the variable on the LEFT side of the equation after isolation.

After reversing the equation accordingly, we have:

$\boxed{n=3}$

We have a value for n, which is 3.

Let me know if you need any clarifications, thanks!

Solve for u, z, y, and t:

$A.\\\\\dfrac{y}{a}-b=\dfrac{y}{b}-a\qquad\text{multiply both sides by }\ ab\neq0\\\\by-ab^2=ay-a^2b\qquad\text{add}\ ab^2\ \text{to both sides}\\\\by=ay+ab^2-a^2b\qquad\text{subtract}\ ay\ \text{from both sides}\\\\by-ay=ab^2-a^2b\qquad\text{distributive}\\\\(b-a)y=ab^2-a^2b\qquad\text{divide both sides by}\ (b-a)\\\\\boxed{y=\dfrac{ab^2-a^2b}{b-a}}\to y=\dfrac{ab(b-a)}{b-a}\to\boxed{y=ab}$

$B.\\t+\dfrac{b^2}{a}=\dfrac{bt}{a}+a\qquad\text{multiply both sides by}\ a\neq0\\\\at+b^2=bt+a^2\qquad\text{subtract}\ b^2\ \text{from both sides}\\\\at=bt+a^2-b^2\qquad\text{subtract}\ bt\ \text{from both sides}\\\\at-bt=a^2-b^2\qquad\text{distributive}\\\\(a-b)t=a^2-b^2\qquad\text{divide both sides by}\ (a-b)\neq0\\\\\boxed{t=\dfrac{a^2-b^2}{a-b}}\to t=\dfrac{(a-b)(a+b)}{a-b}\to\boxed{t=a+b}$

If you could answer it would be so helpful!!!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the degree of an arc corresponds the degree of an angle, we can see that arc ACB would be one-half of the circle (or a semicircle). Both would be 180° and so your answer would be B.

A television and a DVD player cost a total of 1296. The cost of the television is two times the cost of the DVD player. find the

seraphim [82]

You can write out the equation like so: t = 2(d) and the dvd costs d. So, d + 2d = 1296. Which is also 3D=1296. So divide 1296/3 to solve for the cost of the DVD player = 432 and the cost of the tv is 2(d) or 2 x 432 = 864.
