What is an estimate of the solution of the equation 6n+3=2? Use a table
ok so I know the answer is -1/6 but its asking to use a table? does anyone know what kind of table you use for this and how I'd use it? thank you soo much
Did you ever find it out?
does anyone have the answer?
To estimate the solution of the equation 6n + 3 = 2 using a table, you could create a table with values for n and the corresponding values for 6n + 3. Here's how you can do it:
1. Start by choosing a range of values for n. Let's say you want to estimate the solution for n between -1 and 1.
2. Pick some values for n within that range. You can choose values like -1, -0.5, 0, 0.5, and 1.
3. For each value of n, substitute it into the equation 6n + 3.
For example:
- For n = -1, 6(-1) + 3 = -3 + 3 = 0.
- For n = -0.5, 6(-0.5) + 3 = -3 + 3 = 0.
- For n = 0, 6(0) + 3 = 0 + 3 = 3.
- For n = 0.5, 6(0.5) + 3 = 3 + 3 = 6.
- For n = 1, 6(1) + 3 = 6 + 3 = 9.
4. Create a table with two columns: one for the values of n and one for the corresponding values of 6n + 3.
n | 6n + 3
-------------------
-1 | 0
-0.5 | 0
0 | 3
0.5 | 6
1 | 9
5. Looking at the table, you can see that as n gets closer to -1, the value of 6n + 3 gets closer to 2. Therefore, you can estimate that the solution to the equation 6n + 3 = 2 is around n = -1.
Please note that this method provides an estimate, not the exact solution.
