Answer:

The last line of the justification is 1.2 = 0.6n

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find an answer step by step so we can observe the last line of justification.

Let's start by the original equation:

1.4n + 2 = 2n + 3.2

By adding (-1.4n) and (-2) to both sides we obtain:

1.4n - 1.4n + 2 -2 = 2n - 1.4n + 3.2 - 2

which can be simplified as:

0 = 0.6n + 1.2

Adding (-1.2) to both sides we obtain:

0 - 1.2 = 0.6n + 1.2 - 1.2

which can be simplified as:

-1.2 = 0.6n, which is the last line of the justification.

Now by dividing in both sides by 0.6, we solve the equation:

-1.2/0.6 = 0.6n/0.6

which give us the solution: -2 = n.

What is the value of x in 9/5 x = 2/3
Anna [14]

Answer:

x = 10/27

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Pre-Algebra</u>

  • Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
  • Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>

9/5x = 2/3

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Divide both sides by 9/5:          x = 10/27

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute:                    9/5(10/27) = 2/3
  2. Multiply:                        90/135 = 2/3
  3. Simplify:                        2/3 = 2/3

And we have our final answer!

A number is chosen at random from the first 100 positive integers. Find the probability that the number is divisible by 5. 1/10
rosijanka [135]
The number of multiples of 5 from 1 to 100 is:

1≤5n≤100

1/5≤n≤20, since n must be an integer

1≤n≤20

So the multiples of five number 20-1+1=20 elements, and the probability of choosing one of the multiples from the first 100 positive integers is:

P(5n)=20/100=1/5

Assume that t varies jointly as r and q2². If t=320 when r=5 and q = 4, what is the value of q when r= 1 and t= 196?
Harrizon [31]

Step-by-step explanation:

t = k(r)( {q}^{2} )

320 = k(5)( {4}^{2} )

320 = 80k

k = 4

196 = 4(1)( {q}^{2} )

49 =  {q}^{2}

q = 7
