(n + 8) + (n - 12)

Get rid of the parenthesis.

n + 8 + n - 12

Note : the (12) turns into a negative because a negative times a positive is always a negative :)

Combine like terms.

(n + n) + (8 - 12)

Simplify.

2n - 4

~Hope I helped!~

Which expression has a sum of a 11/12? pls help. explain step by step in a way a 13 year old will understand.

lana66690 [7]

c. they are all parts of 12, and when added together they equal 11/12. The formula to solve non proportionate fractions*or with different denominators* is to CROSS multiply and make the denominators equal, then add the numerators and SIMPLIFY.

*Cross multiply to make the denominator equal (you can google how to make fractions equal)

then add the numerators together

then simplify. PLEASE BE CONSIDERATE OF THE FORMULA AND DONT BE INTIMIDATED BY THE LOOK OF THE PROBLEM. They all have the same formula or method of solving. Good Luck!! I hope this helps.

How can you determine if a relation represents as an equation is a function?

elixir [45]

It is relatively easy to determine whether an equation is a function by solving for y. When you are given an equation and a specific value for x, there should only be one corresponding y-value for that x-value. For example, y = x + 1 is a function because y will always be one greater than x.

HELP! What is the measure of angle ABE? WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!

Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Bisection is the division of a line or an angle into two equal halves. It means that a bisector is a line that divides an angle or another line into two equal halves. Therefore,

Line BE divides angle ABC into two equal halves. This means that

Angle ABC/2 = angle ABE = angle EBC

Therefore,.

2x + 20 = 4x - 6

4x - 2x = 20 + 6

2x = 26

x = 26/2 = 13

Therefore,

Angle ABE = 2 × 13 + 20

= 46 degrees
