7n+2 = 4n+17 solve the equation

Answer:

n = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for n:

n + 2 = 4 n + 17

Hint: | Move terms with n to the left hand side.

Subtract 4 n from both sides:

(n - 4 n) + 2 = (4 n - 4 n) + 17

Hint: | Combine like terms in n - 4 n.

n - 4 n = -3 n:

-3 n + 2 = (4 n - 4 n) + 17

Hint: | Look for the difference of two identical terms.

4 n - 4 n = 0:

2 - 3 n = 17

Hint: | Isolate terms with n to the left hand side.

Subtract 2 from both sides:

(2 - 2) - 3 n = 17 - 2

Hint: | Look for the difference of two identical terms.

2 - 2 = 0:

-3 n = 17 - 2

Hint: | Evaluate 17 - 2.

17 - 2 = 15:

-3 n = 15

Hint: | Divide both sides by a constant to simplify the equation.

Divide both sides of -3 n = 15 by -3:

(-3 n)/(-3) = 15/(-3)

Hint: | Any nonzero number divided by itself is one.

(-3)/(-3) = 1:

n = 15/(-3)

Hint: | Reduce 15/(-3) to lowest terms. Start by finding the GCD of 15 and -3.

The gcd of 15 and -3 is 3, so 15/(-3) = (3×5)/(3 (-1)) = 3/3×5/(-1) = 5/(-1):

n = 5/(-1)

Hint: | Simplify the sign of 5/(-1).

Multiply numerator and denominator of 5/(-1) by -1:

Answer: n = -5

Surface area of a sphere is 615.752 m2, what is the volume of the sphere?
const2013 [10]

B

the volume (V) of a sphere = \frac{4}{3} πr³

We require to know the radius r to calculate the volume

using surface area of a sphere = 4πr² = 615.752

divide both sides by 4π

r² = \frac{615.752}{12.56} = 49.0248...

take the square root of both sides

r = \sqrt{49.0248..} ≈ 7, hence

V= \frac{4}{3} × π × 7³ = 1436.76 m³ → B

N the function y = 12.00x + 50, y represents the cost of carpet by the square yard and x represents the number of square yards.
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

The cost increase for each square of carpet by 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

y=12.00x+50

It is a slope intercept form of the line

y=mx+b

Where m is the slope and b is y-intercept.

Therefore the slope of given function is 12 and the y-intercept is 50.

It means the initial ot fixed cost of the carpet is 50 and the cost increased by 12 for each square of carpet.
