N/5+0.6=2 solve for n

Mathematics

Well, to solve this problem, you have to isolate x. The first step of doing this is subtracting 0.6 from each side to leave the equation as N/5=1.4. Then, you need to multiply both sides by 5 to find N. N/5*5=N, and 1.4*5=7. That leaves the equation as N=7, so the value of N is 7.
Hope this helps!

The answer is:  " 7 "  . 
_________________________________________________
       →    " n = 7 " .
_________________________________________________

Explanation:
_________________________________________________

Given:  
_________________________________________________
" (n/5) + 0.6 = 2 " ;   Solve for "n" ;

Subtract "0.6" from EACH SIDE of the equation:

(n/5) + 0.6 − 0.6 = 2 <span>−0.6 ; 

to get:

(n/5) = 1.4 ; 

 Multiply EACH SIDE by "5" ; to isolate "n" on one side of the equation; 
                                                & to solve for "n" ;


5 * (n/5) = 1.4 * 5  ;

to get:
__________________________________________
   " n = 7 ".
__________________________________________ 

Method 2)
__________________________________________
</span>Given:  " (n/5) + 0.6 = 2 " ;   Solve for "n" ;<span>
   
Note that we have "fifths" (the "fraction, (n/5)" ;

           </span>→  <span>and:  "10ths" (the decimal, "0.6" = "6/10" ) ; 

Multiply the entire equation (both sides) by "10" ; to get rid of both the "fraction" and the "decimal" ; 

Note:  We choose "10"; since "10" is the highest "fraction" (that is represented by a "decimal value"; that is:  "6/10" ;  {i.e.,  "0.6 = 6/10" ; as aforementioned} ;
                                    </span>→ and since:  "5" is a factor of "10" ; 

So, multiplying the entire equation by "10"; will get rid of both the "fraction" AND the "decimal" values:

   →  10 * { (n/5) + 0.6) } = 2 * (10) ; 
___________________________________________________
Note the "distributive property" of multiplication:___________________________________________________a(b + c) = ab + ac ;
a(b – c) = ab – ac .___________________________________________________As such:  

  →  Consider the  "left-hand side" of the equation:
__________________________________________

   →  10 * { (n/5) + 0.6) } ;
 
                       =    [10 * (n/5) ] + [10 * 0.6] ; 

                       =    (10n / 5) + 6 ; 

                       =    (10/5)n + 6 ;

                       =     2n + 6  ;

So we rewrite the equation:

  →  2n + 6 =  2 * (10) ; 

Let us consider the "right-hand side of the equation: 

 →  2 * (10) = 20 .
________________________________________________
Rewrite the equation as:

  →  2n + 6 =  20 ;

Now, solve for "n" ;
________________________________________________
Variant # 1 ):
________________________________________________
   →  2n + 6 =  20 ;

Subtract "6" from EACH SIDE of the equation; as follows:

   →  2n + 6 − 6 = 20 <span>− 6 ; 

to get:  

   </span>→  2n = 14 ; 

Now, divide each side of the equation by "2" ; 
     to isolate "n" on one side of the equation; & to solve for "n" ;

   →  2n / 2 = 14 / 2 ; 

   →  " n = 7 ".
____________________________________________________
Variant # 1 ):
____________________________________________________
   →  2n + 6 =  20 ;
____________________________________________________
Divide the entire question by "2" ; to simplify; as follows:
____________________________________________________
   →  {2n + 6} / 2 =  20 / 2  ;

  →  (2n/2)  +  (6/2) =  (20/2 ) ; 

  →   n  +  3 = 10  ;

Subtract "3" from EACH SIDE of the equation;
       to isolate "n" on one side of the equation; & to solve for "n" ;

 
    →   n  +  3 − 3 = 10 <span>− 3 </span>; 

to get:

             →    " n = 7 " .

A game designer must decide how to color four buildings that are in a row. Using only the colors yellow, green, red, and blue, e
topjm [15]

Answer:

The number of ways are there to paint the four buildings is 48.

Step-by-step explanation:

I) let the first building be any color. Therefore the first building can be painted with any of the 4 colors.

Therefore the first building can be colored in 4 ways.

ii) the second building can be colored in 3 ways since it cannot be colored the

same color as the first building.

iii) the third building can also be colored in 3 ways.

iv) the last building can be colored in 2 ways because it cannot be the same color as the first building or the color of the adjacent building.

Therefore the total number of ways the buildings can be colored = 4 \times 3 \times 3  \times 2 = 48.

What is (n+2) / -8=-4
Travka [436]

\frac{n +2}{-8} =-4      Multiply -8 on both sides

\frac{n +2}{-8} (-8)=-4(-8)

n + 2 = 32       Subtract 2 on both sides

n + 2 - 2 = 32 - 2

n = 30

Use the theoretical probability formula to solve the problem. Express the probability as a fraction
serg [7]

Answer:

c. 3 / 13

d. 2 / 13

Step-by-step explanation:

c.

A deck of cards has 52 cards. There are cards of 4 suits- Spades, Hearts, Diamonds and Clubs.

So, there are 52/4= 13 cards of each suit.

Among these 13 cards, there are 3 picture cards or face cards as they are called. These are the Jack, Queen and King cards.

So, the number of total picture cards = 4*3 = 12

the number of cards are 52

theoretical probability formula: P =  favorable events/  possible events

P = 12 / 52

P = 3 / 13

d.

there are four aces and four sevens in the deck

so favorable events = 4 + 4 = 8

possible eventas = 52

P = 8 / 52

P = 2 / 13
