Can you help me solve this equation.
6n-(-2n)+8
you wouldn't be solving for n, just trying to simplify the equation:
6n-(-2n)+8
6n+2n+8
8n+8
you can't simplify anymore, so therefore your answer would be 8n+8
oh okay, that's where I kind a messed up, thanks.
no problem :)
Could you help me with this -3nsquare + 2n + 8 for n = -2? Sorry can make the square on my computer.
Of course, I can help you solve the equation: 6n - (-2n) + 8.
To simplify this equation, we need to follow the order of operations, which is also known as PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division from left to right, and Addition and Subtraction from left to right).
Step 1: Simplify the double negative (-(-2n)):
Since a double negative cancels out, -(-2n) is equivalent to 2n.
Now, the equation becomes: 6n + 2n + 8.
Step 2: Combine like terms:
Combine the terms with 'n' together. 6n + 2n simplifies to 8n.
Now, the equation becomes: 8n + 8.
Step 3: Simplify further if possible:
In this case, there are no more like terms to combine, so we move on to the last step.
Step 4: Final solution:
The simplified equation is 8n + 8.
So, the answer is 8n + 8.
6n-(-2n)+8
6n--2n+8
8n+8
8(n+1)
n=-1
I hope this is right.
