Answer:

n = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

9n - 24 = 4n + 6 {Subtract 4n from both sides }

9n - 24 -4n = 6

5n - 24 = 6 {Add 24 to both sides}

5n = 6 + 24

5n = 30

n = 30/5

n = 6

Answer:

n=6

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

9n + -24 = 4n + 6

Reorder the terms:

-24 + 9n = 4n + 6

Reorder the terms:

-24 + 9n = 6 + 4n

Solving

-24 + 9n = 6 + 4n

Solving for variable 'n'.

Move all terms containing n to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-4n' to each side of the equation.

-24 + 9n + -4n = 6 + 4n + -4n

Combine like terms: 9n + -4n = 5n

-24 + 5n = 6 + 4n + -4n

Combine like terms: 4n + -4n = 0

-24 + 5n = 6 + 0

-24 + 5n = 6

Add '24' to each side of the equation.

-24 + 24 + 5n = 6 + 24

Combine like terms: -24 + 24 = 0

0 + 5n = 6 + 24

5n = 6 + 24

Combine like terms: 6 + 24 = 30

5n = 30

Divide each side by '5'.

n = 6

Simplifying

n = 6

One member of a gardening club can plant flowers in 12 hours. With two members of the club working together the job can be done

mariarad [96]

Answer:

24 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

One member of the gardening club can alone plant flowers in 12 hours.

So in 1 hour he can plant 1/12 of the flowers.

Let the time required by the second member of the club to plant flowers alone be x hours.

Then in 1 hour he can plant 1/x of the flowers.

Now when the two members work together,each hour they can plant:

$\frac{1}{12}+\frac{1}{x}$ of the flowers.

But they can together complete the job in 8 hours. So in one hour they plant 1/8 of the flowers.

=> $\frac{1}{12}+\frac{1}{x}=\frac{1}{8}$

=> $\[\frac{1}{x}=\frac{1}{24}\]
$

=> x=24

So the second member can plant the flowers alone in 24 hours

Divide 180 in a ratio of 4:5:9

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Ratio in which 180 should be divided is 4:5:9
firstly we need to find the total number of portions
this we can find by adding all the numbers making up the ratio
4 + 5 + 9 = 18
180 is made of 18 portions
size of 1 portion = 180 / 18 = 10
when dividing 180 into the respective ratio 4:5:9 the portions are as follows
4 x 10 = 40
5 x 10 = 50
9 x 10 = 90
therefore when we divide 180 in the ratio 4:5:9
the answer we get is
40 :50: 90
