The difference of a number and 6 is the same as 5 times the sum of the number and 2

Answer:

n - 6 = 5 * ( n + 2 ) ; n = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, we will use the words to create an equation.  The left hand side of the equation will be the difference of a number and 6 and the right hand side of the equation will be 5 times the sum of the number and 2.  Hence, we can build the equation:

n - 6 = 5 * ( n + 2 )

If we wanted, we can solve the equation for the number, n.

n - 6 = 5 * ( n + 2 )

n - 6 = 5 * n + 5 * 2

n - 6 = 5n + 10

-16 = 4n

-4 = n

Thus, we have found the missing number to be negative four.

Cheers.

The length of each side of an equilateral triangle is increased by 20%, resulting in triangle ABC. If the length of each side of
kompoz [17]

Answer: Area of ΔABC is 2.25x the area of ΔDEF.

Step-by-step explanation: Because equilateral triangle has 3 equal sides, area is calculated as

A=\frac{\sqrt{3} }{4} a^{2}

with a as side of the triangle.

Triangle ABC is 20% bigger than the original, which means its side (a₁) measures, compared to the original:

a₁ = 1.2a

Then, its area is

A_{1}=\frac{\sqrt{3} }{4}(1.2a)^{2}

A_{1}=\frac{\sqrt{3} }{4}1.44a^{2}

Triangle DEF is 20% smaller than the original, which means its side is:

a₂ = 0.8a

So, area is

A_{2}=\frac{\sqrt{3} }{4} (0.8a)^{2}

A_{2}=\frac{\sqrt{3} }{4} 0.64a^{2}

Now, comparing areas:

\frac{A_{1}}{A_{2}}= (\frac{\sqrt{3}.1.44a^{2} }{4})(\frac{4}{\sqrt{3}.0.64a^{2} } )

\frac{A_{1}}{A_{2}} = 2.25

<u>The area of ΔABC is </u><u>2.25x</u><u> greater than the area of ΔDEF.</u>
