Reorder the terms: 2n + -5(5 + n) = 8n + 3(1 + -5n) 2n + (5 * -5 + n * -5) = 8n + 3(1 + -5n) 2n + (-25 + -5n) = 8n + 3(1 + -5n) Reorder the terms: -25 + 2n + -5n = 8n + 3(1 + -5n) Combine like terms: 2n + -5n = -3n -25 + -3n = 8n + 3(1 + -5n) -25 + -3n = 8n + (1 * 3 + -5n * 3) -25 + -3n = 8n + (3 + -15n) Reorder the terms: -25 + -3n = 3 + 8n + -15n Combine like terms: 8n + -15n = -7n -25 + -3n = 3 + -7n Solving -25 + -3n = 3 + -7n Solving for variable 'n'. Move all terms containing n to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '7n' to each side of the equation. -25 + -3n + 7n = 3 + -7n + 7n Combine like terms: -3n + 7n = 4n -25 + 4n = 3 + -7n + 7n Combine like terms: -7n + 7n = 0 -25 + 4n = 3 + 0 -25 + 4n = 3 Add '25' to each side of the equation. -25 + 25 + 4n = 3 + 25 Combine like terms: -25 + 25 = 0 0 + 4n = 3 + 25 4n = 3 + 25 Combine like terms: 3 + 25 = 28 4n = 28 Divide each side by '4'. n = 7 Simplifying n = 7
Answer:
Um for what test?
Step-by-step explanation:
Since it varies directly, divide the number of shots by the number of goals:
48 shots / 4 goals = 12
This tells you they score a goal every 12 shots.
Multiply shots needed by number of goals:
12 x 3 = 36
They need 36 more shots to score 3 more goals.
Answer:
none of the above
Step-by-step explanation:
You can try the points in the equations (none works in any equation), or you can plot the points and lines (see attached). <em>You will not find any of the offered answer choices goes through the given points</em>.
___
You can start with the 2-point form of the equation of a line. For points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) that equation is ...
y = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)·(x -x1) +y1
Filling in the given points, we get ...
y = (3 -1)/(2 -4)·(x -4) +1
y = 2/(-2)(x -4) +1 . . . . . simplify a bit
y = -x +4 +1 . . . . . . . . . simplify more
y = -x +5 . . . . . . . . . . . slope-intercept form
