Answer: B) n = -3

Step-by-Step Explanation:

11(n - 1) + 35 = 3n
11 * n - 11 * 1 + 35 = 3n
11n - 11 + 35 = 3n
11n + 24 = 3n (Shift +3n to LHS)
11n - 3n + 24 = 0 (Shift +24 to RHS)
11n - 3n = -24
8n = -24 (Shift *8 to RHS)
n = -24/8
=> n = -3

Therefore, n = -3

Answer:

n = -3

(second option listed)

Step-by-step explanation:

first, we will distribute the 11 (n-1)

11 (n - 1) + 35 = 3n

11n - 11 + 35 = 3n

Now, we will combine -11 and 35 (because they are like terms)

11n + 24 = 3n

Now, to isolate x as a positive, I will subtract 3n from both sides

11n + 24 = 3n

- 3n - 3n

8n + 24 = 0

Now, I will subtract 24 from both sides to isolate n

8n + 24 = 0

- 24 - 24

8n = -24

Now, we will divide both sides by 8 to find "n"

8n = -24

÷8 ÷8

n = -3

This means that n is equal to -3

(n = -3)

A group of fitness club members lose a combined total of 28 kilograms in 1 week. There are approximately 2.2 pounds in 1 kilogra

GrogVix [38]

Answer: 8.8 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question, first we have to divide the total weight loss in a week (28 kg) by 7 (days in a week).

28 /7 = 4 kg per day

The group lost 4 kg each day.

Finally we have to convert the result into pounds.

Since 1 kg = 2.2 pounds

4 kg x 2.2 = 8.8 pounds.

We are currently learning triangle similarity and about dilations in geometry. We have been using cross multiplying to figure th

miss Akunina [59]

Took me a minute to think.

Form ratios.

x, the small triangle, forms a ratio with 6, the big triangle.

The part of the side that is equal(with the dash) that is part of the small triangle is equal to 6-x, the big triangle.

Yes, you can cross-multiply here!

$\frac{6}{x} = \frac{8}{6-x}$

Now, cross multiply.
P.S. Use distributive property.

36-6x = 8x

Add 6x on both sides.

36=14x

Divide by 14 on both sides.

x = $\frac{36}{14}$ = $\frac{18}{7}$

barxatty [35]

Answer:

9x^2+22x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

f(g(x))=(3x+1)^2+2(3x+1)-4

=9x^2+16x+6x+2-4

=9x^2+22x-2

to find the soultion of mentioned question you have to put the value of g(x) into f(x) and then solve it like normal ...

The measures of two complementary angles are in the ratio 8:1. how many degrees are in the larger angle?

djverab [1.8K]

Since the measures of the two angles are in the ratio 8:1, this means the bigger angle's is 8x and the smaller angle is x. Since they are complementary, they add to 90°, so you create the equation 8x+x=90°. This can be simplified to 9x=90°. Then, you divide 90 by 9 to get 10. This means x=10. Next, you replace x with 10 to find the measure of the bigger angle. 8x10=80, so the larger angle is 80°.
