Distributive property: a(b + c) = ab + ac
4n - 2 - 2n = 2(2n - 1 - n)
4n - 2 - 2n = 2n - 2 = 2(n - 1)
Answer: x = 9.6
=========================================================
Explanation:
We have two smaller right triangles that are glued together so to speak.
The base of the smaller triangle on the left is 5 while the height is h.
Let's use the tangent rule to find the value of h
tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent
tan(55) = h/5
5*tan(55) = h
h = 5*tan(55)
h = 7.14074003371058
Make sure your calculator is in degree mode. That value of h above is approximate.
--------------------------
Now focus on the smaller triangle on the right
It has the same height value h. This side is the adjacent side while x is the hypotenuse.
We'll use the cosine ratio
cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse
cos(42) = h/x
cos(42) = 7.14074003371058/x
x*cos(42) = 7.14074003371058
x = 7.14074003371058/cos(42)
x = 9.6088135029715
x = 9.6
QUESTION → 
Start by subtracting 3 from both sides to get
.
Now multiply both sides by the reciprocal of 3/2, which is 2/3.
On the left, we have x, and on the right, -3(2/3) is -2.
So we have x = -2.

Answer:
y=0.75x+3.75
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope is

Substituting into point-slope form,
y - 6 = 0.75(x - 3)
y - 6 = 0.75x - 2.25
y = 0.75x + 3.75
