Three times a number (n) is 36 less than five times the number (n). What is the number?

18

Step-by-step explanation:    

To find the number, write an algebraic equation with the given information. Let the variable n represent the unknown number.

Now, break it by parts - "three times a number" would be . The "is" means that it equals something, giving us . "36 less than 5 times the number" would be subtracting 36 from whatever 5 times the number is: . So, put it all together and it is .

Next, solve the equation for n. The answer will be the number.

Thus, the number is 18.

step-by-step explanation:

. your answer will contain x - and y -terms. (1 point) x ( ¿¿ 2 − 7 ) 2 +( y 2 − 9 ) 2 √ ¿ 12. what is the distance from the directrix (the crocodile river) to the point ( x , y )? write this equation. your answer will contain a y -term.

hi,

i'm 75% sure the answer is 1,1 to both lines.

have a great day
