Answer: g(n) = (5/3)n + 11/3

Work Shown:

3m - 5n = 11

3m = 5n + 11 ... add 5n to both sides

m = (5n+11)/3 ... divide both sides by 3

m = (5n)/3 + 11/3 ... break up the fraction

m = (5/3)n + 11/3

g(n) = (5/3)n + 11/3 ...replace m with g(n)

Answer:


g(n)=(11)/(3)+(5n)/(3)

Explanation:

We have the expression
3m-5n=11 to write a formula for g(n) in terms of n we have to clear m. This is:


3m-5n=11, add 5n in both sides of the expression.


3m-5n+5n=11+5n\\3m=11+5n, now divide both sides in 3.


(3m)/(3)=(11+5n)/(3)\\m=(11)/(3)+(5n)/(3)

Now we can say that g(n)=m:


g(n)=m\\g(n)=(11)/(3)+(5n)/(3)

g(n) is in terms of n.
