2n-15=53
You need to get n by itself. To do that we need to simplify the left hand side of the equation. To do so, we move everything away from n. First add 15 to both sides to eliminate it on the left side.
2n-15+15=53+15
2n=68
next divide by 2 to solve for n
2n/2=68/2
n=34

First add 15 to both sides:

2n = 68

Then divide each side by two.

n = 34

A square has a perimeter of 36x - 12. Which expression represents one side of the<br> square?

valina [46]

Answer:

9x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

A square has 4 sides.

We can factor out 4 from the expression to find the value of one side.

Factor:

36x - 12
4(9x) - 4(3)
4(9x - 3)

This means that each side of the square is 9x - 3 units long.

The semicircle shown at left has center X and diameter W Z. The radius XY of the semicircle has length 2. The chord Y Z has length 2. What is the area of the shaded sector formed by obtuse angle WXY?

$\bold{ \red{\star{\blue{GIVEN }}}}$

RADIUS = 2

CHORD = 2

RADIUS --> XY , XZ , WX

( BEZ THEY TOUCH CIRCUMFERENCE OF THE CIRCLES AFTER STARTING FROM CENTRE OF THE CIRCLE)

$\bold{\blue{\star{\red{TO \: \: FIND}}}}$

THE AREA OF THE SHADED SECTOR FORMED BY OBTUSE ANGLE WXY.

$\bold{ \green{ \star{ \orange{FORMULA \: USED}}}}$

AREA COVERED BY THE ANGLE IN A SEMI SPHERE

$AREA = ANGLE \: \: IN \: \: RADIAN \times RADIUS$

$\huge\mathbb{\red A \pink{N}\purple{S} \blue{W} \orange{ER}}$

Total Area Of The Semi Sphere:-

$AREA = \pi \times radius \\ \\ AREA = \pi \times 2 = 2\pi$

Area Under Unshaded Part .

Given a triangle with each side 2 units.

This proves that it's is a equilateral triangle which means it's all angles r of 60° or π/3 Radian

So AREA :-

$AREA = \frac{\pi}{3} \times radius \\ \\ AREA = \frac{\pi}{3} \times 2 \\ \\ AREA = \frac{2\pi}{3}$

$\green{Now:- } \\ \green{ \: Area \: Under \: Unshaded \: Part }$

Total Area - Area Under Unshaded Part

$Area= 2\pi - \frac{2\pi}{3} \\ Area = \frac{6\pi - 2\pi}{3} \\ Area = \frac{4\pi}{3} \: \: ans$

Indicate the equation of the line through (2, -4) and having slope of 3/5.

Nastasia [14]

Y = mx + b.....the m is for the slope , (2,-4)...x = 2 and y = -4
now we sub
-4 = 3/5(2) + b
-4 = 6/5 + b
-4 - 6/5 = b
-20/5 - 6/5 = b
- 26/5 = b

so ur equation is : y = 3/5x - 26/5 <== slope intercept form
or if u need it in standard form :
y = 3/5x - 26/5....(5)
5y = 3x - 26
-3x + 5y = -26...(-1)
3x - 5y = 26 <==standard form
