Answer:

3rd answer is correct

Explanation:


\sf \: 0.6(10n + 25) = 10 + 5n

First, solve the brackets.


\sf6n + 15 = 10 + 5n

Then, subtract 5n by both sides.


\sf6n - 5n + 15 = 10 \\ \sf \: n + 15 = 10

Now, subtract 15 by both sides and make n as the subject.


\sf \: n = 10 - 15 \\ \sf \: n = - 5

Answer:

option 3 , -5

Explanation:

0.6(10n +25) = 10 + 5n

==> distribute the 0.6

6n + 15 = 10 + 5n

==> subtract 5n from both sides

n + 15 = 10

==> subtract 15 from both sides

n = -5
