Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A factor is a number that can evenly divide into another number.

Let’s list all the factors of both numbers.

26: 1, 2, 13, 26

14: 1,2, 7, 14

Now find the GCF, or greatest common factor. The biggest number that is a factor of both 26 and 14 is 2.

Therefore, the GCF of 26 and 14 is 2.

Solve. 14/n+7=10/n-4 N=5.25 N=3.5 N=31.5 N=30

Ilya [14]

Answer:

n=31.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The given question is:

$\frac{14}{n+7}=\frac{10}{n-4}$

Cross multiply to get:

$14(n-4)=10(n+7)$

Expand the parenthesis:

$14n-56=10n+70$

Group similar terms:

$14n-10n=70+56$

Combine the like terms

$4n=126$

Divide both sides by 4

$n=\frac{126}{4}$

n=31.5

Which equation has a slope of -2 and passes through the point (1,-6)?

Naily [24]

Answer:

y=-2x-4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Slope, m = -2

It passes through the point (1,-6).

We need to find the equation of line that passes throgh the given point. It can be calculated as:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

Put y₁ = -6, x₁ = 1 and m = -2

$y-(-6)=(-2)(x-1)\\\\y+6=-2x+2\\\\y+2x+6-2=0\\\\y=-2x-4$

Hence, the equation of line is y=-2x-4.
