Shannon did not mix the correct shade. Cause the correct ratio of blue and red is 7:5. While Shannon mix 12:8=3:2 which is not equal to 7:5.

Is the given value a solution to the equation? 4(n) - 3 = -2(n) + 9 n=2

nlexa [21]

Answer:

Yes!

The solution to the equation is n = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation

$4\left(n\right)-3=-2\left(n\right)+9$

remove the parentheses

$4n-3=-2n+9$

Add 3 to both sides

$4n-3+3=-2n+9+3$

Simplify

$4n=-2n+12$

Add 2n to both sides

$4n+2n=-2n+12+2n$

Simplify

$6n=12$

Divide both sides by 6

$\frac{6n}{6}=\frac{12}{6}$

Simplify

$n=2$

Therefore, the value of n = 2.

Hence,

Yes!

The solution to the equation is n = 2

What is the equation of the following graph in vertex form?

Zepler [3.9K]

<h3>Answer: Choice B. y = (x+3)^2 - 1</h3>

============================================

How I got that answer:

The vertex is the lowest point of parabolas that open upward.

(h,k) = vertex

(h,k) = (-3,-1)

h = -3

k = -1

For each of the answer choices, a = 1.

The general template of a quadratic in vertex form is

y = a(x-h)^2 + k

Plug a = 1, h = -3, k = -1 into that equation. Simplify.

y = a(x-h)^2 + k

y = 1(x-(-3))^2 + (-1)

y = (x+3)^2 - 1
