Answer:

  • The value of n is 9 or -9.

Explanation:

  • -1 + 5|n| = 44
  • => 5|n| = 44 + 1
  • => 5|n| = 45
  • => |n| = 45/5
  • => |n| = 9 or -9
  • => n = 9 or -9

Hence, the value of n is 9 or -9.

Answer:

n = -9 or 9

Explanation:

-1 + 5|n| = 44

~Add 1 to both sides

5|n| = 45

~Divide 5 to both sides

|n| = 9

~Knowing the absolute value rule, the answer can be positive or negative.

Best of Luck!
