Question:

Solve

10(n + 5) = 5n

Solution:

let the equation:

10(n + 5) = 5n

this is equivalent to

10n + 10(5) = 5n

this is equivalent to

10 n + 50 = 5n

this is equivalent to

10n - 5n = -50

this is equivalent to:

5n = -50

solve for n:


n\text{ = }(-50)/(5)=\text{ -10}

then, we can conclude that the correct answer is

n = -10
