number - N

The sum of a number and three more than twice that number is 27.

N + (2N + 3) = 27

what is the smaller number ?

N + 2N + 3 = 27

3N = 27 - 3

3N = 24

N = 8

Check

N + (2N + 3) = 27 = 8 + (2x8 + 3) = 8 + 16 + 3 = 27

Suppose it takes 180 credits to get a baccalaureate degree. You accumulate credit at the rate of one credit per quarter for each
jonny [76]

The total time to be invested to get a degree would be 630 hours

Total credits required = 180 credits

Number weeks In a quarter = 10 weeks

Number of credit earned per hour = 1 credit

To earn a degree :

Number of credits required per week :

180 / 10 = 18 credits per week

Since, credit is earned at a rate of 1 per hour ; then ;

Number of class hours per week = 18 hours per week.

This means 180 class hours is required.

For every class hour ; 2.5 hours is used for outside class study

Hence, Total outside class study hours will be :

(2.5 hours × 180 hours) = 450 hours

Therefore,

Total hours that would be invested :

(total outside class hours + tt’otal class hours)

(450 + 180) = 630 hours

kaheart [24]

Answer:

8/3, or 2 if you want a whole number

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, the simple answer is 2/(3/4). This is nothing but 2*4/3, which is just 8/3. (I used the theorem that states that dividing is the same as multiplying by the reciprocal)

For the given equation, find the values of a, b, and c, determine the direction in which the parabola opens, and determine the y
olasank [31]

The values of a, b, and c are -4,0 and 0 and the parabola opens downward with y-intercept (0,0).

we have

y=-4x^2

<h3>What is the standard form of the quadratic equation?</h3>

The quadratic equation in standard form is equal to

ax^2+bx+c=0

So,In this problem

a=-4, b=0 and c=0

The y-intercept is the value of y when the value of x is equal to zero

y=-4(0)^2=0

The y-intercept is the point (0,0)

The coefficient a is negative, therefore the parabola opens down.
