So what they are telling you is that 5 is three higher than the variable n.
So n = 5-3
so n is 2.
Answer: Last option
(42÷2) +5
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that Mr. Roberts drove 42 miles on Monday.
On Tuesday Mr. Roberts drove half of what he drove on Monday plus 5 miles.
If we want to know how many miles Mr. Roberts drove on Tuesday then we should divide 42÷2 to find half of 42.

Then we know that in addition to the 21 miles he drove 5 more miles. Then we add 21 +5 = 26 miles.
So the expression that gives us the number of miles that Mr. Roberts drove on Tuesday is:
(42÷2) +5
Answer:
9.2
Step-by-step explanation:
Since it is a right triangle, you can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the third side which is the hypotenuse.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
7^2 + 6^2 = c^2
49 + 36 = c^2
85 = c^2
9.219 = C
So, the answer rounded to the nearest tenth would be: 9.2
