first combine like terms so 2n + 7n which is 9n
so 9n + 7 = 13 + 3n + 8n
then combine on other side so 9n + 7 = 13 + 11n
then subtract 7 to 13 so 6
sp 9n + 6 = 11n
then subtract 9 to the other side so 2n
6 = 2n then divide all by 2
n= 3
7/10 - 1/4 use common denominators
28/40 - 10/40 = 18/40 = 9/20
Linear relationships can be expressed in a graphical format where the variable and the constant are connected via a straight line or in a mathematical format where the independent variable is multiplied by the slope coefficient, added by a constant, which determines the dependent variable.
