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

ZE and ZF are vertical angles with mZE = 8x + 8 and mZF = 2x +38.<br> What is the value of x?
Dovator [93]

Answer:

Since ZE and ZF are vertical angles, they are congruent.

8x+8 = 2x+38

8 = 2x-8x+38

8 = -6x+38

8-38 = -6x

-30 = -6x

x = -30/-6

x = 5

The figure shown is a rectangle. If you draw a new rectangle in which the dimensions are doubled, what is the relationship betwe
stellarik [79]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

L = 5

w = 3

Formula

Area = L*w

Solution

Area = 3 * 5

Area = 15

Now double both the width and the Length.

New Length = 2*5 = 10

New Width = 2 * 3 = 6

Area = New Length * New Width

Area = 10 * 6

Area = 60

Answer (look at the choices)

The old rectangle has an area of 15. The new Rectangle has an area of 60. If you double 15, do you get 60. No, so the answer is not A

The new rectangle is 60. If you halve it, do you get 15. No so the answer is Not B

C is the answer

D is you multiply 8 * 15, do you get 60? No so the answer is not D
