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.

Which fraction is closer to 0 than 1​
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

5/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 1/2 is the same distance from zero and one, we can use it to judge whether a fraction is closer to 0 or 1.

Since 5/8 is greater than 4/8 which is 1/2, it is closer to 1.

Since 8/10 is greater than 5/10 which is 1/2, it is closer to 1.

Since 5/12 is less than 6/12 which is 1/2, it is closer to 0.

So our answer is C. 5/12

Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

s = 2j

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - Ada makes sparkling juice by mixing 2 cups of sparkling water

            with every 4 cups of apple juice. Let s represent the number of

            cups of sparkling water and j represent the number of cups of

             apple juice.

To find - Write an equation that shows how s and j are related.

Proof -

Let total number of cups of sparkling water make = s

     Total number of cups of apple juice make = j

Now,

Given that, Ada makes sparkling juice by mixing 2 cups of sparkling water with every 4 cups of apple juice.

⇒2s = 4j

⇒s = 2j

∴ we get

Ada can makes sparking water by mixing 2j cups of sparking water with every j cups of apple juice.
