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

maria [59]

Answer:

The Court ruled that the ban on affirmative action in the Michigan Constitution is Constitutional.

Explanation:

The Schuette v. Coalition to Defend Affirmative Action is a case of affirmation, race and sex discrimination in public university admission.

On the 22nd of April, 2014 the court held that fourteenth Amendment's equal protection Clause does not prevent states from enacting bans on affirmation in education.

Other court associate Justice include; Clarence Thomas, Stephen Breyer, Samuel Alito, Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan, Anthony Kennedy and Ruth Badder Ginsburg. The Chief Justice for the case then is John Roberts.
