5n + 7 = 7(n+1) - 2n

First distribute 7 to all terms inside the parenthesis

7(n) = 7n
7(1) = 7

5n + 7 = 7n - 2n + 7

Simplify. Combine like terms

5n + 7 = 5n + 7

True.

If you want to continue:

Isolate the n, move all variables to one side, and constants to the other

5n (-5n) + 7 (-7) = 5n (-5n) + 7 (-7)

0 = 0

True

The average grain of salt is 0.0003 meters wide. Rhinovirus, which causes the common cold, is 0.00000003 meters wide. How many t

algol [13]

Answer:

$1\times 10^4\ times$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Width of average grain of salt is, $w=0.0003\ m$

Width of Rhinovirus is, $W=0.00000003\ m$

Now, expressing each width in scientific notation form, we get:

$w=0.0003\ m = 3\times 10^{-4}\ m\\\\W=0.00000003\ m = 3\times 10^{-8}\ m$

Now, in order to get how many times 'W' is wider than 'w', we divide the two widths. This gives,

$\frac{W}{w}=\frac{3\times 10^{-4}\ m}{3\times 10^{-8}\ m}\\\\\frac{W}{w}=1\times 10^{-4-(-8)}=1\times 10^{-4+8}=1\times 10^4\\\\\therefore W=1\times 10^4\times w$
