Step-by-step explanation:
(1)
Given the perimeter then the third side is the perimeter subtract the sum of the 2 given sides, that is
third side
= 4x + 3y - (x - y + x + y)
= 4x + 3y - 2x ← collect like terms
= 2x + 3y
(2)
The area (A) of a triangle is calculated as
A = bh ( b is the base and h the height )
Here b = 2x + 6 and h = x - 2, thus
A = (2x + 6)(x - 2) ← expand factors using FOIL
= (2x² + 2x - 12) ← distribute
= x² + x - 6 ← in standard form

Given:
Find:
Solution: In order to solve for n we need to add 8 to both sides which would cancel -8 on the right side and isolate n giving us the value of n.
<u>Add 8 to both sides</u>
Therefore, the final answer would be that n is equal to -11.
