Thanks Jim :)) Ok so we have 10 times the square of a non - zero number, that means $10 \times n^2$ n here represents the non - zero number. The second part of the question states, that the expression above equals 50 times the same number n. So we have $10 \times n^2 = 50 \times n$

9. Astrophysics

Does that make sense?

10. anonymous

yes thanks

Now just solve for n, you know how to do that right?

12. anonymous

nope

its been a while

|dw:1435720008170:dw| can you finish it off to solve for n now? It's the same process as I just did.
