The product of 4, and a number increased by 8, is -48

Mathematics
1 answer:
german3 years ago

Answer:

4n + 8 = -48

n = -14

Step-by-step explanation:

Using key words from the problem, you can set up an equation with the proper operations to solve for the variable.  Product = multiplication, so the 'product of 4 and a number' = 4n.  Increased = addition, so increased by 8 = 4n + 8.  The word 'is' means equal to, so:

4n + 8  = -48

In order to solve for 'n', you use inverse (opposite) operations and whatever you do to one side of the equation, you do to the other:

Subtract 8:  4n + 8 - 8 = -48 - 8 or 4n = -56

Divide 4:  4n/4 = -56/4

Solve for 'n':  n = -14

Answer:

y²-2y+3

Step-by-step explanation:

We write the dividend, y³-y²+y+3, under the box and the divisor, y+1, to the left of the box.

We first divide y³ by y; this is y².  We write this above the box, over -y².  We multiply the divisor by y²:  

y²(y+1) = y³+y²

This goes under the divisor.  We then subtract:

(y³-y²)-(y³+y²) = -2y².  We then bring down the next term, y; this gives us -2y²+y.

We then divide -2y² by y; this is -2y.  This goes above the box beside the y² in the quotient.  We then multiply the divisor by -2y:

-2y(y+1) = -2y²-2y

We now subtract:

(-2y²+y)-(-2y²-2y) = 3y.  We bring down the last term, 3; this gives us 3y+3.  We divide 3y by y; this is 3.  This goes beside the -2y in the quotient.  We then multiply this by the divisor:

3(y+1) = 3y+3.  We then subtract:  (3y+3)-(3y+3) = 0

This makes the quotient y²-2y+3.

Michele wanted to measure the height of her school’s flagpole. She placed a mirror on the ground 48 feet from the flagpole, then
zepelin [54]
Refer to the diagram below for the sketch of the position of the mirror, Michelle, and the flagpole.

Using similar triangle concept, to find the height of the flagpole, we first need to find out the scale factor of the horizontal distance. 
We write this as ratio
Mirror to Michelle : Mirror to Flagpole
            12ft             :             48ft
             1                :               4

So the ratio of the height is
Michelle : Flagpole
     1         :       4
    5ft       :      20ft

Answer: A

A school pays $1825 for 150 shirts. This includes the $25 flat-rate shipping cost. What equation models the total cost as a func
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer: 12n + 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount that the school pays for ordering one shirt.

This includes the $25 flat-rate shipping cost. This means that if n shirts are ordered, the total cost including shipping would be expressed as

nx + 25

The school pays $1825 for 150 shirts. The expression would be

150x + 25 = 1825

150x = 1825 - 25

150x = 1800

x = 1800/150

x = $12

Therefore, the equation that models the total cost as a function of the number of n T-shirts ordered is

12n + 25
