Distribute 1/2 to <span>(n – 4):

</span>\frac{1}{2} \times n = \frac{1}{2}n
\frac{1}{2} \times -4 = -2
<span>
Subtract (2n + 3):

</span>- (2n + 3) = -2n -3
<span>
Your equation should now look like this:

</span>\frac{1}{2}n - 2 - 3 = 3 - 2n - 3
<span>
Combine like terms on both sides:

</span>-2 - 3 = -5
3 - 3 = 0
\frac{1}{2}n - 5 = -2n
<span>
Subtract 1/2n from both sides:

</span>-5 = -\frac{5}{2}n
<span>
Divide both sides by -5/2 to get n by itself:

</span>n = 2
<span>
The value of n is 2.</span>

PLEASE ANSWER QUICKLY I WILL MARK BRAINIEST AND 70 POINT
kykrilka [37]

a) You are given the rate as 7.4m/min,

The equation would become d = 7.4t where d is the total distance and t would be the total number of minutes.

b) d would be a positive number because the diver is ascending, which means he is moving up towards the surface.

c) To find how long it took the diver, replace d with 41.36 ( how deep the diver was) and solve for t:

41.36 = 7.4t

To solve for t, divide both sides by 7.4:

t = 41.36 / 7.4

t = 5.59 minutes ( 5 minutes and 35 seconds)
