Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
-6.9
Discussion:
1.3n - 0.03 = -9 => multiply both sides by 100
130n - 3 = -900 =>
130n = -900 +3 = -897 => add 3 to both sides
n = -897/130 =>
n = - (69 * 13)/ (10*13) =>
n = - 69/10 = - 6.9
Thank you,
MrB
I only know number 2, the diameter is T to P
7(x-2) + 3(x + 2) = 5(x-6)...distribute thru the parenthesis
7x - 14 + 3x + 6 = 5x - 30...combine like terms
10x - 8 = 5x - 30...subtract 5x from both sides
10x - 5x - 8 = -30....add 8 to both sides
10x - 5x = -30 + 8...combine like terms
5x = - 22
x = -22/5 = - 4 2/5 <==
