Answer:

n=16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

12−2(n−1)=−18

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

12−2(n−1)=−18

12+(−2)(n)+(−2)(−1)=−18(Distribute)

12+−2n+2=−18

(−2n)+(12+2)=−18(Combine Like Terms)

−2n+14=−18

−2n+14=−18

Step 2: Subtract 14 from both sides.

−2n+14−14=−18−14

−2n=−32

Step 3: Divide both sides by -2.

−2n /−2  =  −32 /−2

n=16

A certain substance doubles its volume every minute at 9 AM a small amount is placed in a container ,at 10 AM the container was
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

the container is 1/4 full at 9:58 AM

Step-by-step explanation:

since the volume doubles every minute , the formula for calculating the volume V at any time t is

V(t)=V₀*2^-t , where t is in minutes back from 10 AM and V₀= container volume

thus for t=1 min (9:59 AM) the volume is V₁=V₀/2 (half of the initial one) , for t=2 (9:58 AM) is V₂=V₁/2=V₀/4  ...

therefore when the container is 1/4 full the volume is V=V₀/4 , thus replacing in the equation we obtain

V=V₀*2^-t

V₀/4 = V₀*2^-t

1/4 = 2^-t

appling logarithms

ln (1/4) = -t* ln 2

t = - ln (1/4)/ln 2 = ln 4 /ln 2 = 2*ln 2 / ln 2 = 2

thus t=2 min before 10 AM → 9:58 AM

therefore the container is 1/4 full at 9:58 AM

Which function below is the inverse of f(x) = x^2-9
USPshnik [31]
To find the inverse
replace f(x) with y
switch all x and y
solve for y
replace y with f⁻¹(x)

f(x)=x^2-9
y=x^2-9
x=y^2-9
x+9=y^2
sqrt both sides
\sqrt{x+9}
replace
f⁻¹(x)=\sqrt{x+9}

that is the inverse
