Question

3n - 5=-8 (6+5n) what is the answer

Answer 1

3n-5=-8 (6+5n)
3n/3= (53+40n)/3.
N= 17 2/3+ 13 1/3

Answer 2

1. Simplify on the right side


`3n - 5 = -48 - 40n`

2. Add '40n' to both sides


`3n + 40n - 5 = -48 - 40n + 40n`


`43n - 5 = -48`

3. Add '5' to both sides


`43n - 5 + 5 = -48 + 5`


`43n = -43`

4. Divide '43' to both sides


`(43n)/(43) = (-43)/(43)`


`n = -1`
