Solving Equation for Unknown Variable n
What is the approximate value of the unknown variable n when solving the equation (1.04)(64.1) = n(0.0821)(805)?
To solve the equation (1.04)(64.1) = n(0.0821)(805) for n, you need to isolate the variable n on one side of the equation. First, distribute the values on the right side of the equation: (1.04)(64.1) = (n)(0.0821)(805) Next, simplify both sides of the equation: 65.44 = 66.4625n Then, divide both sides of the equation by 66.4625: n = 65.44 / 66.4625 Using a calculator, the approximate value of n is 0.984.
