An expression that is equal to that question is 5/3 as a fraction or the solution times 3.
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
17−2n=9
17+−2n=9
−2n+17=9
Step 2: Subtract 17 from both sides.
−2n+17−17=9−17
−2n=−8
Step 3: Divide both sides by -2.
−2n−2=−8−2
n=4
Answer:
x = 3 ± 
or
x = 3 +
, x = 3 - 
Step-by-step explanation:
given f(x) = 2(x - 3)^2 - 8, find when f(x) = 40
So, we plug in 40 for f(x) in the 1st equation and solve for x. (Aim to got x on its own)
40 = 2 (x - 3)^2 - 8
+ 8 + 8
-----------------------------
48 = 2 (x - 3)^2
/2 /2
-----------------------------
24 = (x - 3)^2
square root both sides
--------------------
= x - 3
x = 3 ±
