Write as an equation.

3n+4=-8

Whenever you have two things that are equal and you do the same thing to each of them, they will still be the same. We can use this to our advantage here. Just use inverse operations to get x on its own.

Subtract 4 from each side.

3n+4-4=-8-4 \\ 3n=-12

Divide each side by 3.

\frac{3n}3=\frac{-12}3 \\\\ \boxed{n=-4}

How do you start this
lidiya [134]
You have two equations.
since the second is already isolated, sub in x-4 for every y in equation 1 so that 
x^{2} - 4 [(x-4)^{2}] =16

expand, collect like terms, factor to find x, then plug x value back into original equation to find y

What is the y-intercept of the line with a slope of − 1/4 that passes through the point (−2, −9/2 )?
svlad2 [7]
-9/2 = -1/4(-2)+ b

-9/2 = 1/2 + b
Minus 1/2 over

B= -5

Hope this helps!
