Answer:

2*(n-2) =5

n= 4.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Twice the difference of a number and 2 equals 5

2*(n-2) =5

Distribute

2n-4 =5

Add 4 to each side

2n-4+4 = 5+4

2n = 9

Divide each side by 2

2n/2 = 9/2

n = 4.5

Lets set up a simple equation to solve this problem.

Let x = your number.

(x - 2) * 2 = 5. To solve for x, divide each side by 2

(x - 2) = 5/2. Add 2 to each side.

x = 4.5 or 9/2

1. Determine whether one is eligible for citizenship.
Lorico [155]

The correct answer is D. Take an oath of loyalty to the United States.

Explanation:

Naturalization is a process foreign people can complete to acquire the citizenship of a country, which allows them to have the same rights and protections of those who are born in that country. In the case of the U.S., this process requires multiple steps but the general last step in the process is to take the oath of loyalty or oath of Allegiance, which means the individual has been accepted to be a new citizen and he/she needs to the declare loyalty to the U.S. government and Constitution, as well as, acceptance of obligations as a citizen. According to this, option D is correct.

If you stand on a bathroom scale in an elevator, just as the elevator starts to descend the reading on the scale.
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer: The reading on the scale will decrease as the elevator descend.

According to Newton's second law of motion which explains that the rate of change of the momentum of a body is directly proportional to, and in the same direction as, the net force acting on it.

In essence as a body moves towards ground, it weighs less and even weighs more upon impact with the ground.

If peradventure, the whole system is in free fall, you, the elevator and the scale will weigh nothing at all.
