(n+5)/(n+8)=1=6/(n+1)
check your typing, I see two = signs
opps, sorry its:
(n+5)/(n+8)=1+6(n+1)
(n+5)/(n+8)=1+6(n+1)
n+5)/(n+8)= 6n + 7
(6n+ 7)(n+8) = n+5
6n^2 + 55n + 56 = n+5
6n^2 + 54n + 51 = 0
2n^2 + 18n + 17 = 0
Use the quadratic formula to solve
thank you
To solve the equation (n+5)/(n+8) = 1 = 6/(n+1), we need to find the value of n that satisfies this equation.
First, let's simplify the equation by multiplying both sides by (n+8) and (n+1) to eliminate the fractions:
(n+5)/(n+8) = 1 -> Multiply by (n+8)
(n+5) = (n+8)
Next, let's solve for n by expanding the expressions:
n + 5 = n + 8
Now, let's isolate the variables on one side:
n - n = 8 - 5
0 = 3
We have reached a contradiction, as 0 cannot equal 3. Therefore, there is no solution to the equation (n+5)/(n+8) = 1 = 6/(n+1).
