Answer: 31

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the distance, find the difference between the number.

23 - (-8) = 31 So the distance is 31 units.

Note: To go from -8 to 23 you will have to add 31 to -8 and to go from 23 to -8 you will have to subtract 31 so the distance is 31

Answer:

n = 59

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation of n is $\sqrt{n + 5} - \sqrt{n - 10} = 1$ and we have to solve it for n.

$\sqrt{n + 5} - \sqrt{n - 10} = 1$ ........... (1)

⇒ $\frac{(n + 5) - (n - 10)}{\sqrt{n + 5} + \sqrt{n - 10}} = 1$

{Rationalizing the numerator}

⇒ $\sqrt{n + 5} + \sqrt{n - 10} = 15$ .............. (2)

Now, adding (1) and (2) we get

$2\sqrt{n + 5} = 16$

⇒ n + 5 = 64 {Squaring both sides}

⇒ n = 59 (Answer)
