$\frac{1}{3} (n + 15) = -2$

First, replace the numerator with the parentheses.
$\frac{n+15}{3} =-2$
Second, multiply both sides by 3.
$n + 15 = -2 * 3$
Third, multiply 2 × 3 to get 6.
$n + 15 = -6$
Fourth, take away 15 from each side.
$n = -6 - 15$
Fifth, simplify -6 - 15 to get -21.
$n = -21$

Answer: n = -21

A study analyzed the average yearly salt intake in the United States from 2012 thru 2017. The data is summarized in the table:

Ugo [173]

Answer:Is an estimate of the average grams of salt used in 2012

Step-by-step explanation: Let

x ---> the number of years since 2012

f(x) ---> is the total amount of salt ingested in grams

we have

This is a linear equation in slope intercept form

where

The slope is equal to

The y-intercept or initial value is equal to

The y-intercept is the value of the function f(x) when the value of x is equal to zero

In this context, the y-intercept is the average amount of grams of salt ingested in the year 2012

The exact value of the average amount of grams of salt ingested in the year 2012 is 3,554 grams (see the data in the table)

Compare the exact value with the y-intercept

therefore

3,548 grams Is an estimate of the average grams of salt used in 2012

COOKING Franklin is cooking a 3-pound turkey breast for 6 people. If the number of pounds of turkey varies directly with the num

Gwar [14]

Answer-

2, 4, and 8 people will need 1, 2, 4 pounds of turkey respectively.

Solution-

Given in the question, number of pounds of turkey varies directly with the number of people, i.e as the number of people increases or decreases, the pound of turkey also increases or decreases.

Taking,

x = number of people,

y = pounds of turkey.

This condition can be represented as,

$\Rightarrow y\ \alpha \ x\\\Rightarrow y=kx$
