108-271+215-_____=-103
Im going to combine the first thee numbers and replace the blank with a variable, lets use x. 
52 - x=-103
now I am going to subtract 52 on both sides to get the variable alone
-x=-155
Im going to multiply both sides to eliminate the negitive in the variable
x=155
If you want to check just plug 155 into the blank
108-271+215-155=-103
-163+215-155=-103
52-155=-103
-103=-103

so after checking work the blank is equal to 155.

Describe when to use a series and when to use an equation.
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

An equation is used when we have paired sets of data to describe how the values in one pair change when we alter the values in the other set.

On the other hand, a series gives a general formula of determining the value of the nth observation when the values have been arranged in increasing order

Step-by-step explanation:

An equation such as; y = 3x+5 models the relation between the response variable y and the predictor variable x. It tells us how y changes when x is altered by a certain magnitude. The value 3 is described as the slope while 5 is the y-intercept.

On the other hand, a series such as;  score = 2 + 3n provides a general formula that can be used to determine the score of the nth individual in a sample or population.

What is the value of n in the equation 1/2(n – 4) – 3 = 3 – (2n + 3)?
Travka [436]
Distribute 1/2 to <span>(n – 4):

</span>\frac{1}{2} \times n = \frac{1}{2}n
\frac{1}{2} \times -4 = -2
<span>
Subtract (2n + 3):

</span>- (2n + 3) = -2n -3
<span>
Your equation should now look like this:

</span>\frac{1}{2}n - 2 - 3 = 3 - 2n - 3
<span>
Combine like terms on both sides:

</span>-2 - 3 = -5
3 - 3 = 0
\frac{1}{2}n - 5 = -2n
<span>
Subtract 1/2n from both sides:

</span>-5 = -\frac{5}{2}n
<span>
Divide both sides by -5/2 to get n by itself:

</span>n = 2
<span>
The value of n is 2.</span>

5/6 and 6/7

Step-by-step explanation:

In the top of the fraction its going up by one each time (1,2,3,4 so the 5 and 6 would be the top half of the fraction), and in the bottom half its also going up by one but it started at 2 so its one more than the top half  (2,3,4,5, so the 6 and 7 would be the bottom half of the fraction)
