Question

What is the N in 0.5w + 15 =20

Answer 1

Answer: 10

Explanation:

I’m not sure where the N fits into the equation, but if you are finding the amount that w holds, 10 is correct.

Reverse the equation: 20=15+.5w

Now move .5 over and do 20-15 which equals 5.
.5w=5

5 divided by .5 gives you the answer of 10. 10•.5=5 which means 10 is your answer!

Answer 2

w = 10

Explanation:

Rectifying mistake in question,

→ Value of w in 0.5w + 15 = 20.

Given equation,

→ 0.5w + 15 = 20

Now the value of w will be,

→ 0.5w + 15 = 20

→ 0.5w = 20 - 15

→ 0.5w = 5

→ w = 5/0.5

→ [ w = 10 ]

Hence, the value of w is 10.
