Answer:

n = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

First subtract the 3n from both sides, creating the equation, -5 = -48 -43n. Then add 48 to both sides creating, 43 = -43n, then divide both sides by -43 and n = -1.

3n-5=-48-40n

Move -40n to the other side. Sign changes from -40n to +40n.

3n+40n-5=-48= -48-40n+40n

3n+40n-5=-48

Move -5 to the other side.

3n+40n-5+5=-48+5

3n+40n=-43

43n=-43

Divide by 43 for both sides

43n/43=-43/43

n=-1

Answer: n=-1

One stack has 6 cups, and its height is 15 cm. The other one has 12 cups, and its height is 23 cm. How many cups are needed for

Ronch [10]

Answer:

Given

Number of stacks = 2

Stack 1 = 6 cups; h1 = 15cm

Stack 2 = 12 cups; h2 = 23cm

Let's first find the average:

With an average of 4/3, to obtain the number of cups needed to obtain a height of 50m, we have:

50 / (4/3)

= 50 * 3/4

= 150/4

= 37.5

From the answer, we can see that the number of cups is not really proportional to the height of the stack, because the average of stack one and stack 2 are different.

-6(2r +8)=-10(r-3) I need the work to

barxatty [35]

Answer:

r = -39

Step-by-step explanation:

So we are trying to solve the equation for r.

-6(2r + 8) = -10(r - 3)

Divide both sides by -2. (This will make distributing much easier.)

3(2r + 8) = 5(r - 3)

Distribute the 3 on the left side and the 5 on the right side,

6r + 24 = 5r - 15

Subtract 24 from both sides.

6r = 5r - 39

Subtract 5r from both sides.

r = -39

So now we have solve the equation.

I hope you find my answer and explanation to be helpful. Happy studying. :)

3x + ky = 8

sattari [20]

Answer:

(a): x is 3 and ky is -1

(b): k is -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let: 3x + ky = 8 be equation (a)

x - 2 ky = 5 be equation (b)

Then multiply equation (a) by 2:

→ 6x + 2ky = 16, let it be equation (c)

Then equation (c) + equation (b):

${ \sf{(6 + 1)x + (2 - 2)ky = (16 + 5)}} \\ { \sf{7x = 21}} \\ { \sf{x = 3}}$

Then ky :

${ \sf{2ky = 3 - 5}} \\ { \sf{ky = - 1}}$

${ \bf{y = \frac{1}{2} }} \\ { \sf{ky = - 1}} \\ { \sf{k = - 2}}$
