There are a few different ways to go about it.
I would do it like this:

(n - 5)/2 = 5

Multiply each side of the equation by 2 : n - 5 = 10

Add 5 to each side of the equation: n = 15

(n-5)/2=5 (Multiply terms on both sides of the equation by 2)

n-5=10 (Add 5 to both sides of equation)

n=10+5

n=15

CAn you help me with ratios? Mrs. Sturkie mixed 3 quarts of blue paint and 2 quarts of red paint to make purple paint to her cla

fredd [130]

So as we already know the ratio is 3 quarts blue paint to 2 quarts red paint, also written as 3:2. if she only has 1 quart blue paint she will need half of a quart of red paint because the ratio has to remain the same amount. if you multiply one side then you must multiply the other. same goes with division. If she only has 1 quart of red paint then that shows she divided the 2 red by 2. There fore you would have to divided the 3 by 2 in order to get 1.5 which would then make the ratio 1.5:1

Since all triangles equal 180 degrees. You will subtract (128 + 23) from 180.

180 - 146 is 34 degrees.
