Answer: $n=8$

Cross-multiply

$2/3=n/12$

$(2)*(12)=n*(3)$

$24=3n$

Flip the equation

$24=3n---->3n=24$

Divide both sides by 3

$3n/3=24/3$

$24/3=8----> n=8$

Gaira was asked to evaluate the algebraicexpression –3.8x + 6 when x = –7.5.

icang [17]

gaira ALSO multiplied 6 by x, when 6 doesnt have 6x.

so the correct answer would be only -3.8(-7.5) + 6 which is 34.5.
