(1/2)(n - 4) - 3 = 3 - (2n + 3
Distribute the (1/2) on the left and the -1 on the right.
(1/2)n - 2 - 3 = 3 - 2n - 3
Combine like terms.
(1/2)n - 5 = -2n
Add 2n to both sides and add 5 to both sides
2.5n = 5
Divide both sides by 2.5
n = 2

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

56 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we minus the total paid with the cost of the taxi = $18-$4 = $14

$14 is what Alex paid for total of miles she travel

Each mile = $0.25

So, $14 ÷ $ 0.25 = 56 miles

The following points are on the graph of a function:

Maurinko [17]

An inverse function reverses the roles of inputs and outputs (of x-values and y-values).

If (2,4) is on the graph of a function, then (4,2) is on the graph of the inverse function.

If (9,7) is on the graph of the inverse, then (7,9) would be on the graph of the original function.

If (a,b) is on the graph of the function, then (b,a) is on the graph of the inverse.

Getting to your question, which of the points listed has the inverse listed up in the table?

lisabon 2012 [21]

(Sorry if I'm wrong)

Enlarged means making it bigger, so you're making it 3 1/2 times bigger.

Try multiplying both the area and perimeter by 3.5

(6 x 3.5) (8 x 3.5)

P = 21cm and A = 28cm
