Rational because you get a whole number
Answer:
To solve for n you need to get it by itself
First you want to distribute your 2 through the (3n+14)
-2n+6n+28=-20 (2*3n+2*14= 6n+28)
Now you want to combine any like terms if possible
4n+28=-20 (-2n+6n=4n, both like terms)
Then you want to subtract -28 from both sides
4n=-48 (28-28=0, -20-28=-48)
Lastly you want to divide both sides by 4
n=-12 (4n/4=n, -48/4= -12)
Answer: x = -5
Step-by-step explanation:
First convert 3/4 to decimal= 0.75
0.75 (8x - 4) = 7x + 2
6x - 3 = 7x + 2
Transpose 7x from right hand side to the left hand side
6x - 7x = 2 + 3
-x = 5
x = -5
I hope this helps.
The value of x is 1.
The value of y is 4.
Solution:
Given TQRS is a rhombus.
<u>Property of rhombus:
</u>
Diagonals bisect each other.
In diagonal TR
⇒ 3x + 2 = y + 1
⇒ 3x – y = –1 – – – – (1)
In diagonal QS
⇒ x + 3 = y
⇒ x – y = –3 – – – – (2)
Solve (1) and (2) by subtracting
⇒ 3x – y – (x – y) = –1 – (–3)
⇒ 3x – y – x + y = –1 + 3
⇒ 2x = 2
⇒ x = 1
Substitute x = 1 in equation (2), we get
⇒ 1 – y = –3
⇒ –y = –3 – 1
⇒ –y = –4
⇒ y = 4
The value of x is 1.
The value of y is 4.
