7n-8=3n+4. You subtract 3n in both sides and get 4n-8=4. then you add 8 to both sides and get 4n=12. Finally you divide both sides by 4 too get n by itself. n=3

Janine and her older sister Ingrid's ages are consecutive even numbers. When Janine's age is divided by seven, and Ingrid's age
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

Janine is 28. Ingrid is 30.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the ages be x and x + 2 for Janine and her sister, respectively.

x/7 + (x + 2)/3 = 14

Multiply both sides by the LCD, 21, to get rid of denominators.

21 * x/7 + 21 * (x + 2)/2 = 21 * 14

3x + 7(x + 2) = 294

3x + 7x + 14 = 294

10x = 280

x = 28

x + 2 = 30

Answer: Janine is 28. Ingrid is 30.

Write an equation in point-slope form for the line that passes through each point with the given slope (-1,-2) m= 3
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

<h2>           y + 2 = 3(x + 1)</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The Point-Slope form of equation of a line with slope of "m" and passing through point (x₁, y₁) is:  y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

m = 3

x₁ = -1

y₁ = -2

Therefore the equation:

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

<h3>                                   y + 2 = 3(x + 1)</h3>
