Question

5 (3-n)=2n+1
How do I solve this problem? Please help me. Thank you very much.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

15 - 5n = 2n + 1

Bringing like terms on one side

15 - 1 = 2n + 5n

14 = 7n

14/ 7 = n

2 = n

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First distribute. 5•3 and 5•n.

This gives you 15-5n=2n+1

Next add 5n to both sides.

This will give you 15=7n+1

Then you will subtract 1 from both sides.

14=7n

Finally you divide by 7 so you can get n by itself.

Your answer will be 2=n

You can always go back and plug your answer in to see if it works!
