Explain why solving the equation - 3n - 4 = 2 is different from solving the

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First get the answer to -3n - 4 = 2

-3n - 4 + 4 = 2 + 4

-3n = 6

n = 6/-3

n = -2

That answer is the only one that is permitted. It is the only one that completely satisfies the equation.

Now when you do the inequality, look what happens.

-3n - 4 < 2              Add 4 to both sides.

-3n-4+ 4 < 2+4

-3n < 6                  Now there are a bunch of ways (2) to solve this.  

                            No matter which way you do it, the arrow will change.

-3n/-3 > 6/-3

n > - 2

That means that any number that is greater than - 2 will satisfy the inequality.

So n = 0 will work. Even n = - 1 will work. Anything bigger than -2 will work. The equation does not provide that kind of latitude.

Why is the remainder always less than the divisor
anastassius [24]
The remainder is always less than the divisor because if the remainder was more than the divisor then you would have a totally different answer. If the remainder was more than the divisor than you know your answers wrong.

Write the equation of the line that passes through (2,3) and (4, 1) in point-slope form. Use (2,3) for (x1, y1).
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

y-2 = -(x-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)  where (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) are two points on the line

    = (1-3)/(4-2)

   =-2/2

   =-1

The point slope form is

y-y1 = m(x-x1)  wher m is the slope and (x1,y1) is a point on the line

y-3 = -1(x-2)

y-2 = -(x-2)
