The answer is n= 12. Here's a picture
You would have none left. If you started with one cup of cornmeal and then you used that one cup of cornmeal to make the muffins, you would have none left
|2x - 5| - 2 = 3 |add 2 to both sides
|2x - 5| = 5 ⇔ 2x - 5 = 5 or 2x - 5 = -5 |add 5 to both sides
2x = 10 or 2x = 0 |divide both sides by 2
x = 5 or x = 0
Exact form:
5/7
Decimal form:
0.71428571...
Let's begin by listing out the information given to us:
We start out by observing that Triangles MKR & ACD are similar or proportional

We will solve for the missing side by using the similar triangle theorem. This is shown below:~
