Answer:

I'll help with the work side.

Explanation:

Equation: 3/4(n + 16) = -15

First, we need to get rid of the parentheses. So, we just need to multiply 3/4 by n and 16.

3/4n + 12 = -15

Now, we need to get rid of the denominator so that we have whole numbers. We just need to multiply 4 (the denominator) with every other number in the equation to get rid of it.

3n + 48 = -60

Now, subtract 48 from both sides so that we have the variable on one side and regular numbers on the other.

3n = -108

Finally, just divide both sides by 3 to get rid of the multiplication factor in front of the variable. Then, you have your final answer of;

n = -36

(as stated from the lovely above)
