Problem

Evaluate. 7(n + 5) = (7 x 4) + (7 x 5)

Solution

For this case we can distribute the terms in the left

7n +35 = 28 +35

And we can subtract 35 in both sides and we got:

7n = 28+35-25= 28

7n =28

And dividing both sides by 7 we got:

n = 28/7 = 4

And then the solution for this case would be:

n=4
