Pleased Help!! Need explained!

Answer 1

Problem 1: n = 16

Problem 2: n = -1

Explanation:

Problem 1:

-3n + 48 = 0

We solve the equation for n.

First, subtract 48 from both sides.

-3n = -48

Now divide both sides by -3. This cancels out the negative on both sides:

n = 16

-2n + 10 -5n = 17

First, combine the terms with n:

-7n + 10 = 17

Now, combine the numbers that don't have n (subtract 10 from both sides).

-7n = 7

n = -1

Answer 2

In question 1, n= 16

In question 2, n = -1

Explanation:

Question 1: -3n + 48 =0

Question 2: -2n + 10 - 5n = 17

To find n in Question 1

-3n + 48 =0

3n = 48

n = 48/3

n = 16

To find n in Question 2

-2n + 10 - 5n = 17

-2n - 5n = 17 - 10

-7n = 7

n = 7/-7 = -1

n = -1

Therefor the value of n in question 1 is 16

and value of n in question 2 is -1
