-9=5/17n
a.-153/5
b.5/153
c.17/45
d.45/17
To solve for n, we need to isolate it on one side of the equation.
Starting with -9 = (5/17)n, we can multiply both sides by 17 to get rid of the fraction:
-9 * 17 = (5/17)n * 17
-153 = 5n
Now, divide both sides by 5 to solve for n:
-153/5 = 5n/5
-153/5 = n
Therefore, the answer is a. -153/5.
which equation is an identity
a.11-(2v+3)= -2v-8
To determine if an equation is an identity, we need to simplify both sides of the equation and see if they are equal regardless of the values of the variables.
Starting with 11 - (2v + 3) = -2v - 8:
First, simplify the expression inside the parentheses (2v + 3):
11 - 2v - 3 = -2v - 8
Now, combine like terms on both sides of the equation:
8 - 2v = -2v - 8
Next, add 2v to both sides of the equation:
8 = -8
The equation 8 = -8 is not true regardless of the value of v. Therefore, the equation is not an identity.
So, the answer is none of the given options.
which equation has no solution
5v+3=5v-5
2x-4=2x+7-x
To determine if an equation has no solution, we need to solve the equation and see if we end up with a contradiction.
Starting with the first equation, 5v + 3 = 5v - 5:
Subtract 5v from both sides:
3 = -5
The equation 3 = -5 is not true, so the first equation has no solution.
Now, let's check the second equation, 2x - 4 = 2x + 7 - x:
Combine like terms on both sides:
2x - 4 = x + 7
Subtract x from both sides:
x - 4 = 7
Add 4 to both sides:
x = 11
The solution for x is 11, so the second equation does have a solution.
Therefore, the equation that has no solution is 5v + 3 = 5v - 5.
3(x-7)-x=2x-21
Let's solve the equation step by step:
Starting with 3(x-7) - x = 2x - 21:
First, distribute the 3 to both terms inside the parentheses:
3x - 21 - x = 2x - 21
Combine like terms on both sides of the equation:
2x - 21 = 2x - 21
Now, subtract 2x from both sides:
-21 = -21
The equation -21 = -21 is true regardless of the value of x. Therefore, this equation has infinitely many solutions. Any value of x will satisfy the equation.
So, the answer is that the equation 3(x-7) - x = 2x - 21 has infinitely many solutions.
4+2y=9+2y
To solve the equation 4 + 2y = 9 + 2y, we need to isolate the variable y.
First, let's simplify both sides of the equation:
4 + 2y = 9 + 2y
Next, we can subtract 2y from both sides:
4 = 9
However, the equation 4 = 9 is not true. Since there is no value of y that will make this equation true, the equation 4 + 2y = 9 + 2y has no solution.
Therefore, the answer is that the equation 4 + 2y = 9 + 2y has no solution.

Based on the provided options, we can't conclusively determine the exact cost of cotton candy. The cost of cotton candy may not be included in the given options or may require additional information to determine accurately.
3(y-5)+2=5
Let's solve the equation step by step:
Starting with 3(y - 5) + 2 = 5:
First, distribute the 3 to both terms inside the parentheses:
3y - 15 + 2 = 5
Next, combine like terms on the left side of the equation:
3y - 13 = 5
Now, isolate the variable y by adding 13 to both sides:
3y = 18
Finally, divide both sides by 3:
y = 6
Therefore, the solution to the equation 3(y - 5) + 2 = 5 is y = 6.
70=-7(-2-2z)
Let's solve the equation step by step:
Starting with 70 = -7(-2 - 2z):
First, simplify the expression in the parentheses:
70 = -7(-4 - 2z)
Multiply -7 by each term inside the parentheses:
70 = 28 + 14z
Next, subtract 28 from both sides:
70 - 28 = 28 + 14z - 28
42 = 14z
Finally, divide both sides by 14:
42/14 = 14z/14
3 = z
Therefore, the solution to the equation 70 = -7(-2 - 2z) is z = 3.
70=-7(-2-2z)
z=4
z=-28
z=-128
z=784
Let's substitute each value of z into the equation and check if it satisfies the equation:
For z = 4:
70 = -7(-2 - 2(4))
70 = -7(-2 - 8)
70 = -7(-10)
70 = 70 (True)
For z = -28:
70 = -7(-2 - 2(-28))
70 = -7(-2 + 56)
70 = -7(54)
70 = -378 (False)
For z = -128:
70 = -7(-2 - 2(-128))
70 = -7(-2 + 256)
70 = -7(254)
70 = -1778 (False)
For z = 784:
70 = -7(-2 - 2(784))
70 = -7(-2 + 1568)
70 = -7(1566)
70 = -10962 (False)
From the checks, it is clear that only z = 4 satisfies the equation.
Therefore, the correct answer is z = 4.
