okay. :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well, 1/4 - 16 = negative 15.75

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So, what is an equation that has that same answer? Based on the choices

OpenStudy (misty1212):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok, first, what is = to n?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

We have to find that out @misty1212 right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how do i find out what is equal to n?

OpenStudy (misty1212):

\[4n-16=4(n-4)\]

OpenStudy (misty1212):

that is called factoring

OpenStudy (misty1212):

so \[\frac{1}{4n-16}=\frac{1}{4(n-4)}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay thankyou very much :)
