Answer:

a=-22

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply both sides of the negative equation by (-2) to get the equation:

a-4=13(-2)

then simplify to get:

a-4=-26

then isolate the variable by addig 4 to both sides of the equation to get:

a=-26+4

simplify to get:

a=-22

While grading her students' most recent quiz on equation solving, Mrs. Jones calculated that approximately forty percent of her
EastWind [94]

The given equation is,

3(-n+4)+5n=2n

Part 1:

Solve the above equation for n.

Using distributive property of multiplication,

\begin{gathered} -3n+3\times4+5n=2n \\ -3n+12+5n=2n \end{gathered}

Now, group the like terms.

-3n+5n-2n+12=0

Now, add the like terms.

\begin{gathered} -5n+5n+12=0 \\ 0=-12 \end{gathered}

0=-12 is a false statement.

Since we obtained a false statement, the given equation has no solution.

So, option b is correct.

Part 2:

The option (a) is n=3.

If while solving an equation, a single value is obtained for the variable, then the equation has only a single solution. If n=3 is obtained after solving the equation, then the student should chose option (a) as the answer.

The option (b) is "no solution".

While solving an equation, if we obtain an equation which is mathematically false, then the equation will have no solution. So, no solution is chosen when no value is obtained for n and the final equation is mathematically false.

The option (c) is "infinitely many solutions".

While solving an equation, if we obtain an equation which is mathematically correct such as 0=0, 7=7 etc., then the equation will have infinietly many solutions. So, infinitely many solutions is chosen when no value is obtained for n and the final equation is mathematically correct.

The length of a rectangular garden is 8m greater than twice the width the area of the garden is 280m^2 what is the width of the
yarga [219]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :-

The length of the garden 8m greater than 2 times the width.

Area of the garden is 280 m²

Let us consider the length as x and width as y.

Sp, we can day length as :-

x = 8 + 2y ---(1)

Now, we know that:-

Area of Rectangle = Length × Breadth

280 = x * y

We can replace the value of x now,

280 = y × ( 8 + 2y)

280 = 8y + 2y²

2y² + 8y - 280 = 0

y² + 4y - 140 = 0

Factorise it.

(y -10)(y + 14)

Cancelling -ve value, we get the width as 10 metres.
