-511 = 1
- 13 = -12

Answer 1

n = 1

n = - 1

n = - 1/5

n = - 25

Explanation:

We are to obtain the value if n in the given equations :

1.)

n - 13 = - 12

To find, n ;

Add 13 to both sides

n - 13 + 13 = - 12 + 13

n = 1

2.)

n/5 = - 1/5

Multiply both sides by 5

n/5 * 5 = - 1/5 * 5

n = - 1

3.)

-5n = 1

Divide both sides by - 5

-5n/-5 = 1/-5

n = - 1/5

4.)

n + 15 = - 10

Subtract 15 from both sides :

n + 15 - 15 = - 10 - 15

n = - 25
