Answer:

  n = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

"By inspection" is an appropriate method.

We are asked to compare the expressions

  n·n

  8·n

and find the value(s) of n that makes them equal. <em>By inspection</em>, we see that n=8 will make these expressions equal. We also know that both expressions will be zero when n=0.

__

More formally, we could write ...

  n^2 = 8n . . . . the two formulas give the same value

  n^2 -8n = 0 . . . . rearrange to standard form

  n(n -8) = 0 . . . . . factor

Using the zero product rule, we know the solutions will be the values of n that make the factors zero. Those values are ...

  n = 0 . . . . . makes the factor n = 0

  n = 8 . . . . . makes the factor (n-8) = 0

Generally, we're not interested in "trivial" solutions (n=0), so the only value of n that is of interest is n = 8.

__

A lot of times, I find a graphing calculator to be a quick and easy way to find function argument values that make expressions equal.

Brooke has 24 pencils and 36 erasers. If she makes identical goodie bags for her friends with no pencils or erasers left over, w
Licemer1 [7]
I think the answer is 12 because the greatest common factor of 24 and 36 is 12.

Hope this helped☺☺

(That means each goody bag will have 2 pencils and 3 erasers)

What property describes the number sentence 6+0 = 6
zmey [24]
That is the Identity Property of Addition.
If it is adding and the whole number stays the same it is Identity Property of Addition.
If it is multiplying then it would be the Identity Property of Multipulcation. For example for this problem it would be 6x1 in multipulcation in which the whole number would stay the same.
Here are descriptions of all the properties:
