Mathematics

Nataly [62]3 years ago

Answer:

n = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. Add 5 to each side, so it now looks like this: -3n = 21
  2. Divide each side by -3 to cancel out the -3 next to n. It should now look like this: n = -7

I hope this helps!

Answer:

n = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for n:

-3 n - 5 = 16

Hint: | Isolate terms with n to the left-hand side.

Add 5 to both sides:

(5 - 5) - 3 n = 5 + 16

Hint: | Look for the difference of two identical terms.

5 - 5 = 0:

-3 n = 16 + 5

Hint: | Evaluate 16 + 5.

16 + 5 = 21:

-3 n = 21

Hint: | Divide both sides by a constant to simplify the equation.

Divide both sides of -3 n = 21 by -3:

(-3 n)/(-3) = 21/(-3)

Hint: | Any nonzero number divided by itself is one.

(-3)/(-3) = 1:

n = 21/(-3)

Hint: | Reduce 21/(-3) to lowest terms. Start by finding the GCD of 21 and -3.

The gcd of 21 and -3 is 3, so 21/(-3) = (3×7)/(3 (-1)) = 3/3×7/(-1) = 7/(-1):

n = 7/(-1)

Hint: | Simplify the sign of 7/(-1).

Multiply numerator and denominator of 7/(-1) by -1:

Answer: n = -7

(6 to the power of 3 times 3 to the power of 3) to the power of 2
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

(6³ * 3³)² = 18⁶

Multiply inside the parenthesis.

(18³)² = 18⁶

When you put powers to powers, they multiply, eg:

(x³)⁴ = x³°⁴ = x¹²

18⁶ = 18⁶

True.

Circumference and Area questions look at the picture
Helga [31]

Note that the formula for the circumference of a circle is πd, while the formula for the area of a circle is πr².

π≈3.14

A. C=πd

Simply plug in the numbers into the formula.

Diameter=Radius*2

17*2=34

C=34(π)

B. (π)(5²)

Plug in the numbers into the formula. Remember that half of the diameter is the radius.

C.  (π)(4.5)

There are two possible formulas that could be used to calculate the circumference of a circle: πd and 2πr.

The expression above is simply multiplying the circle's radius times pi. Therefore, it is not a method that could be used to find the circumference of a circle.

D. (π)(6.5²)

Remember that the formula for calculating the area of a circle is πr².

Half of the diameter is 6.5 (13.5/2=6.5). 6.5 cm. is the radius. Now just plug the numbers into the formula.

(π)(6.5²)

Therefore, the last answer choice is the correct answer.
