Question

(2/3)n + 8 = (1/2)n + 2

Answer 1

(2/3)n + 8 = (1/2)n + 2
2n/3 + 8 = n/2 + 2
2n/3 - n/2 = 2- 8
4n/6 - 3n/6 = -6
n/6 = -6
n=-36

Answer 2

\[\frac{ 2 }{ 3 }n + 8 = \frac{ 1 }{ 2 }n + 2\] I don't understand how you got your answer

Answer 3

2n/3+8=n/2+2
2n/3-n/2=2-8
4n-3n/6=-6
n/6=-6
n=-36

Answer 4

2/3n+8=1/2n+2
put the n on the same side so i want to talk the 1/2n to the other so i subtract 1/2n from each side
(2/3)n + 8 -1/2n = (1/2)n + 2 -1/2n ====> 2/3n + 8 - 1/2n = 2
then put the numbers on the same side by subtracting an 8
2/3n + 8 - 1/2n -8 = 2 -8 =====> 2n/3 - n/2 = 2- 8
you need a common denominator
2/3 multiply denominator and numerator by 2 ====> 4/6
1/2 multiply denominator and numerator by 3 ====> 3/6
4n/6 - 3n/6 = -6
n/6 = -6
multiply both sides by 6
n=-36

Answer 5

Oh my bad diffrent way of doing them then I'm used too.. thank you though
