Which expression is equivalent to 2.8n – 8.4?

4.1n

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation n – 4.6n – 3.3n + 2.8n , to get its equivalent expression, the following steps must be followed;

Step 1:

Factor out the common variable n

n(1 – 4.6 – 3.3 + 2.8)

Step 2:

Carry out the operation in parentheses;

= n(1+2.8-4.6-3.3)

= n(3.8-4.6-3.3)

= n(3.8-3.3-4.6)

= n(0.5-4.6)

= n(-4.1)

= -4.1n

The equivalent expression is -4.1n

if a = 1,   and b = 2, then the answer is 47.99999999. if you round that to the nearest whole number, the answer is 48.
