Let other one be x

ATQ

\\ \sf\longmapsto x+\dfrac{-8}{17}=-8

\\ \sf\longmapsto\dfrac{17x-8}{17}=-8

\\ \sf\longmapsto 17x-8=17(-8)=-136

\\ \sf\longmapsto 17x=-136+8

\\ \sf\longmapsto 17x=-128

\\ \sf\longmapsto x=\dfrac{-128}{17}

Whats the answer for 6n+7-2n-14=5n-1​
12345 [234]

Answer:

Simplifying

6n + 7 + -2n + -14 = 5n + 1

Reorder the terms:

7 + -14 + 6n + -2n = 5n + 1

Combine like terms: 7 + -14 = -7

-7 + 6n + -2n = 5n + 1

Combine like terms: 6n + -2n = 4n

-7 + 4n = 5n + 1

Reorder the terms:

-7 + 4n = 1 + 5n

Solving

-7 + 4n = 1 + 5n

Solving for variable 'n'.

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

Add '-5n' to each side of the equation.

-7 + 4n + -5n = 1 + 5n + -5n

Combine like terms: 4n + -5n = -1n

-7 + -1n = 1 + 5n + -5n

Combine like terms: 5n + -5n = 0

-7 + -1n = 1 + 0

-7 + -1n = 1

Add '7' to each side of the equation.

-7 + 7 + -1n = 1 + 7

Combine like terms: -7 + 7 = 0

0 + -1n = 1 + 7

-1n = 1 + 7

Combine like terms: 1 + 7 = 8

-1n = 8

Divide each side by '-1'.

n = -8

Simplifying

n = -8

Answer:

B. -\frac{7}{10} = -.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Replace all occurrences of  −  −  with a single  +. Two consecutive minus signs have the same mathematical meaning

-.75+\frac{2}{5}+.4-\frac{3}{4}

Find the common denominator.

\frac{-.75*20}{20} +\frac{2*4}{20} +\frac{.4*20}{20}-\frac{3*5}{20}

Simplify terms.

\frac{-15+8+8-15}{20}

Simplify the numerator.

\frac{-14}{20}

Reduce the expression by cancelling the common factors.

-\frac{7}{10}

<em>hope this helps, good luck :)</em>

Alexxandr [17]

Answer:3 in. per yr

Step-by-step explanation:

Present height of Samantha is 40\frac{1}{2}=\frac{81}{2}

After next 5\frac{1}{2} years i.e. \frac{11}{2} years

she grew to 57\ inches

Increase in her height=57-\frac{81}{2}=16.5\ inches

Increase in height per year is =\frac{16.5}{5.5}=3\ in.\ per\ year

A 5-foot tall person standing with her back to the sun casts an 12-foot long shadow. To the nearest degree, what angle does the
swat32

Answer:

  • 23°

Explanation:

<u>1) Data:</u>

a) height of the person = opposite-leg to the angle the sun makes with the ground = 5 ft

b) length of the shadow = adjacent-leg to the angle the sun makes with the ground = 12 ft

c) angle, α = ?

<u>2) Solution</u>

  • tanα = opposite-leg / adjacent-leg

  • tanα = 5 ft / 12 5t = 5/12

  • α = arctan(5/12) = 22.6°

  • 22.6° rounded to the nearest degree is 23° ← answer
