Answer:

7 + 2n = -11 -Subtract 7 from both sides

7 - 7 + 2n = -11 - 7

2n = -18 -Divide both sides by 2.

2n / 2 = -18 / 2

n = -9

Hope this helps you!

Hello!

Answer:

n=-9

*The answer must have a negative sign.*

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you subtract by 7 from both sides of an equation.

$7+2n-7=-11-7$

Then, you simplify.

$2n=-18$

Next, you divide by 2 from both sides of an equation.

$\frac{2n}{2}=\frac{-18}{2}$

And finally, simplify and solve. You can also dividing into the groups.

$18/2=9$

$n=-9$

Hope this helps!

Sarah has a brother who is 5 years younger than herself and another brother who is 8 years younger than herself. She observes th

ELEN [110]

Answer:

Sarah is 13 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent Sarah's age with S

Her first brother's age with F

Her second brother's age with B

So, we have:

From the first statement, we have:

$S - F = 5$ ---- (1)

From the second, we have:

$S - B = 8$ ---- (2)

The product of their ages is 40.

First, we make F the subject in (1) and B the subject in (2)

$F = S - 5$

$B = S - 8$

Their product is represented as follows:

$F * B = 40$

Substitute values for F and B

$(S - 5) * (S - 8)=40$

Open bracket

$S^2 - 5S -8S + 40 = 40$

$S^2 - 13S + 40 = 40$

Subtract 40 from both sides

$S^2 - 13S = 0$

Factorize:

$S(S - 13) = 0$

Split:

$S = 0$ or $S - 13 = 0$

But Sarah's age can't be 0 because she has two younger brothers.

So, we stick to

$S - 13 = 0$

Make S the subject

$S = 13$

Hence, Sarah is 13 years old

If the four lines are extended, which system would have only one solution?

xeze [42]

Answer:

A line a and line b

Step-by-step explanation:

Lines b and c are parallel (no intersection points), so the system will have no solutions.

Lines b and d are parallel (no intersection points), so the system will have no solutions.

Lines c and d coincide (infinitely many intersection points), so the system will have infinitely many solutions.

Lines a and b will intersect after extension, so the system of these two equations will have only one solution.
