For how many integers n is n + n = n*n ?

a) None
b) One
c) Two
d) Three
e) More than three.

Simplifying the equation, we have:

2n = n^2

n^2 - 2n = 0

n(n - 2) = 0

n = 0 or n = 2, so there are two possible integer values for n.

Answer: C

For how many integers n is n + n = n*n ?

a) None
b) One
c) Two
d) Three
e) More than three.

Given: n + n = (n)(n)
Simplify both sides: 2n = n²
Subtract 2n from both sides to get: 0 = n² - 2n
In other words: n² - 2n = 0
Factor to get: n(n - 2) = 0
So, either n = 0 or n = 2
There are two solutions

Answer: C

Cheers,
Brent
