Answer:

n=3

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

8n + 12 + -5n = 21

Reorder the terms:

12 + 8n + -5n = 21

Combine like terms: 8n + -5n = 3n

12 + 3n = 21

Solving

12 + 3n = 21

Solving for variable 'n'.

Move all terms containing n to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-12' to each side of the equation.

12 + -12 + 3n = 21 + -12

Combine like terms: 12 + -12 = 0

0 + 3n = 21 + -12

3n = 21 + -12

Combine like terms: 21 + -12 = 9

3n = 9

Divide each side by '3'.

n = 3

Simplifying

n = 3

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

hello :

8n + 12 - 5n = 21

8n + 12 - 5n-12 = 21 -12

3n =9

n = 9/3 = 3

Write the points (-3,5) and (1,1) in slope-intercept form

Jobisdone [24]

Y=mx+b
m=slope
b=yint

find slope
slope between (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is (y1-y2)/(x1-x2)

given
(-3,5) and (1,1)
slope=(5-1)/(-3-1)=4/-4=-1

y=-1x+b
find b
when x=1, then y=1
1=-1(1)+b
1=-1+b
add 1
2=b

y=-x+2

Use the distance formula to calculate the length of the leg CD

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

To calculate the distance between two points on the coordinate system you have to use the following formula:

$d=\sqrt[]{(x_1-x_2)^2+(y_1-y_2)^2}$

Where

d represents the distance between both points.

(x₁,y₁) are the coordinates of one of the points.

(x₂,y₂) are the coordinates of the second point.

To determine the length of CD, the first step is to determine the coordinates of both endpoints from the graph

C(2,-1)

D(-1,-2)

Replace the coordinates on the formula using C(2,-1) as (x₁,y₁) and D(-1,-2) as (x₂,y₂)

$\begin{gathered} d_{CD}=\sqrt[]{(2-(-1))^2+((-1)-(-2))}^2 \\ d_{CD}=\sqrt[]{(2+1)^2+(-1+2)^2} \\ d_{CD}=\sqrt[]{3^2+1^2} \\ d_{CD}=\sqrt[]{9+1} \\ d_{CD}=\sqrt[]{10} \end{gathered}$

The length of CD is √10 units ≈ 3.16 units
