Answer:

the negative solution.  It is n = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n represent the number.  Then n² - 16 = 6n, and, after rearrangement,

n² - 6n - 16 = 0.  This factors as follows:  

n² - 6n - 16 = 0 = (n - 8)(n + 2) = 0, and so n = 8 or n = -2.

We are to find the negative solution.  It is n = -2.

Find the distance between the two points (-10,3) and (0,27)​
crimeas [40]

Answer:

26 units

Step-by-step explanation:

\boxed{distance \: between \: 2 \: points =  \sqrt{ {(x1 - x2)}^{2} +  {(y1 - y2)}^{2}  } }

Using the formula above,

distance between (-10, 3) and (0, 27)

=  \sqrt{ {( - 10 - 0)}^{2}  +  {(3 - 27)}^{2} }

=  \sqrt{ {10}^{2}  + ( - 24) {}^{2} }

=  \sqrt{100 + 576}

=  \sqrt{676}

= 26 units
