Question

Please help me with this literal equation!

Answer 1

x=(-20+n) / 3a

Explanation:

(3ax-n) /5 = -4

⇒3ax-n = -20 [multiplied by 5 on both sides]

⇒3ax=-20+n [add "n" on both sides]

⇒x=(-20+n) / 3a [divide both sides by "3a"]

Answer 2

x =
`(n-20)/(3a)`

Explanation:

Given

`(3ax-n)/(5)` = - 4

Multiply both sides by 5

3ax - n = - 20 ( add n to both sides )

3ax = - 20 + n = n - 20

Isolate x by dividing both sides by 3a

x =
`(n-20)/(3a)`
