Let X is the random number Erik thinks of, and Y is the random number Nita thinks of.
Both X and Y are in the range from 0 to 20.
<span>X<=20
Y<=20
If the difference between their two numbers is less than 10, then Erik wins.
The difference between the two numbers can be written X-Y, or Y-X depending on which number (X or Y) is greater. But we do not know that. In order not to get negative value, we calculate absolute value of X-Y, written |X-Y| which will give positive value whether X is greater than Y or not.
If |X-Y|<10 Erik wins.

Answer:
The length of the shortest side of the triangle is 10.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the lengths of the sides of a triangle are 4, 5 and 6, if the length of the longest side of a similar triangle is 15, to determine what is the length of the shortest side of the triangle, the following calculation must be performed :
6 = 15
4 = X
4 x 15/6 = X
10 = X
Therefore, the length of the shortest side of the triangle is 10.
n=-2 i got this answer because i combined like terms first like 2n-n
we get just n after
and then, we subtract the 5 from both sides to get it on the opposite side of the equal sign.. we get x=-2
