3/4-1/2n=5/8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(3/4)-1 / 2n = 5/8 -1/4/2n =5/8 -2/8/2n=5/8 -2/8 = 10/8 n (-2/8)/(10/8) = n -16/ 80 =n -1/5=n

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it 3/4 - (1/2)n = 5/8 or 3/4 - 1/(2n) = 5/8 ??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If it is the first way, then it is this... 3/4 - (1/2)n = 5/8 -- multiply the equation by 8 6 - 4n = 5 -- subtract 6 from both sides -4n = -1 n = 1/4 check... 3/4 - 1/2(1/4) = 5/8 3/4 - 1/8 = 5/8 6/8 - 1/8 = 5/8 5/8 = 5/8 (correct)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

your right, my bad

easy mistake to make...don't worry about it.
