8/11(n-10)=64 I need to show my work to

Answers

Hope you understand it and see what I did.
so first you multiply 8 over 11 and n and you get: 8/11n
then you multiply 8 over 11 and 10 and you get 80 over 11 but then you have to make it a mixed fraction which is 7 1 over 2. then you end up with this equation: 8 over 11n X 7 1 over 2 equals 64. Then im stuck.. because im in 8th grade and in Pre Algebra so im just now learning this.. xD but maybe you can get it from there.

When the numbers are giving us magnitude relative to a fixed point.

Step-by-step explanation:

In cases where the sign of the numbers are just telling us magnitude.

For instance the sign of the slope tells whether the line moves forward or backward.

But when we are considering the steepness of the line, it makes sense if we compare the absolute value of the numbers.

The greater the absolute value, the greater the steepness.

Louisa is 152.7 centimeters tall. Her younger sister is 8.42 centimeters shorter than she is. How tall is Louisa's younger sister?

Answers

Answer: 144.28 centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of Louisa = 152.7 centimeters

The difference in Louisa and her younger sister =  8.42 centimeters

152.7-8.42= 144.28
Lousia's younger sister is 144.28cm tall.
