Answer: n = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

3n +2(n + 2) = 9n + 12

(simplify 2(n + 2)) =

3n + 2n + 4 = 9n + 12

(subtract 9n from both sides)

3n + 2n - 9n + 4 = 12

-4n + 4 = 12

(subtract 4 from both sides)

-4n = 8

(divide -4 from both sides)

n = -2

Answer:

b. -2

Step-by-step explanation:

3n + 2 ( n + 2 ) = 9n + 12

[To simplify, multiply 2 with n and 2]

3n + 2n + 4 = 9n + 12

5n + 4 = 9n + 12

[Add 2n and 3n]

5n + 4 - 9n = 12

[Sign of 9n would change when it's moved from one side of the = to the other]

5n - 9n = 12 - 4

[Similarly, sign of 4 would change from + to -]

- 4n = 8

n = 8/-4

n = -2

Hope this helps :D

Lisa's recipe for 6 dozen cookies has 3/4 cup of butter and 1 1/2 cups of sugar. How much butter does she need to make only 3 do
VikaD [51]
This is basic alegbra, you set up a proportions equations with dozen of cookies over butter. 6/ 3/4 equals 3/x. You cross multiply, 6x equals 2 1/4. You divide 6 on both sides of the equation to isolate x, the variable. 2 1/4 divided by 6 equals 0.375. The answer is 0.375 cups of butter

Eloise made a list of some multiples of 8/5 write 5 fractions that can be in Eloise list
alexgriva [62]
This question is asking for a list of fractions, that when you pull out common factors, they will all simplify back to the 8/5 fraction.

So if 2 is the common factor, you multiply the numerator and denominator by 2.

2: (8*2)/(5*2)= 16/10

3: (8*3)/5*3)= 24/15

4: (8*4)/(5*4)= 32/20

5: (8*5)/(5*5)= 40/25

10: (8*10)/5*10)= 80/50

Eloise's Potential List:
16/10, 24/15, 32/20, 40/25, 80/50

If you simplify any of these fractions above, you will get 8/5 again.

To work backwards:
80/50: 10 goes into 80, 10 goes into 50= 8/5

16/10: 2 goes into 16, 2 goes into 10= 8/5

Hope this helps! :)
