Algebra.Com's Answer #6979 by elima(1433)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! N is 16 less than 2K \n" ); document.write( "K is 2 more than N \n" ); document.write( "n=2k-16 \n" ); document.write( "k=n+2 \n" ); document.write( "Since we already know what k= lets substitute that in the other equation; \n" ); document.write( "n=2(n+2)-16 \n" ); document.write( "n=2n+4-16 \n" ); document.write( "n=2n-12 \n" ); document.write( "-n=-12 \n" ); document.write( "n=12 \n" ); document.write( "Now we have what n=, so we can but that in the equation and solve for k; \n" ); document.write( "12=2k-16 \n" ); document.write( "12+16=2k \n" ); document.write( "28=2k \n" ); document.write( "14=k \n" ); document.write( "Hope you understand \n" ); document.write( "=) \n" ); document.write( " |
