Answer:

4 is the value of n

Step-by-step explanation:

First you want to get the n by itself, which means dividing the 3...

36 / 3 = 12 -- So your equation looks like this n+8=12, subtract the 8 to get 4

12-8 = 4, once you plug the 4 back into the normal equation you get 36

3(4+8)=36

Answer:

Thus, n = 4 is the solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. perform the indicated multiplication, obtaining 3n + 24 = 36

2. Subtract 24 from both sides: 3n = 12

3. Solve this result for n: n = 12/3. Thus, n = 4 is the solution.

How would you find the answer to -200 + 14?

Oliga [24]

Answer:

-186

Step-by-step explanation:

When you add a positive number to a negative, it gets bigger (In value) . For example:

-5 + 4 = -1

-10 + 12 = 2

So for this equation, -200 + 14, all you have to do is subtract 14 from 200, which will get you 186.

Since you removed the negative, add it back to get -186

A 15-foot ladder leans against a house. The bottom of the ladder is 7 feet from the house. To the nearest degree, what angle doe

max2010maxim [7]

The ladder is forming a right triangle with the house. In this right triangle the hypotenuse is the measure of the ladder, and the distance between the house and he ladder is one of the sides of the triangle. To find the angle, $\alpha$ , that the ladder is making with the ground, we are going to use a trig function that relates the adjacent side of our angle with the hypotenuse. That trig function is Cosine.
$Cos \alpha = \frac{adjacent.side}{hypotenuse}$
$Cos \alpha = \frac{7}{15}$
$\alpha =arcCos( \frac{7}{15} )$
$\alpha =62.2$

We can conclude that the ladder make with the ground a 62° angle.
