Answer:

n = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

You must write and solve a symbolic equation.

n - 6 = 5(n + 2), or

n - 6 = 5n + 10

Combining like terms, we get:

-16 = 4n,

and so n = -4

In your own words, describe how to graph the linear equation y = -1/5x + 3. Step by step

Gemiola [76]

Answer:

Steps given below and graph is attached.

Step-by-step explanation:

First Step:

Find out $y-intercept$ by substituting $x=0$

$y=-\frac{1}{5}\times 0+3\\\\y=3\\\\Hence\ line\ passes\ through\ (0,3).$

Second Step:

Find out $x-intercept$ by substituting $y=0.$

$0=-\frac{1}{5}x+3\\\\\frac{1}{5}x=3\\\\x=15\\\\Hence\ line\ passes\ through\ (15,0).$

Third Step:

Draw a line passing through $(0,3)\ and\ (15,0)$ .

Graph is attached.

Balance the equation

loris [4]

On the right side, there are

• 2•2 = 4 atoms of Nb

• 2•5 = 10 atoms of O

so among the reactants on the left, the reaction is balanced as

4 Nb + 5 O₂ → 2 Nb₂O₅
