A -4

BO

o

D

6

Answer 1

The value of n is 1

Explanation:

Given the expression
`5n-3= 7n-5`

In other to solve for n we have to perform a series of step wise operations as follows

collecting like terms we have

`5n-7n= -5+3`

`-2n= -2\\`

The negative signs will council out on both sides we have

`2n= 2\\`

Dividing both sides by 2 we have

n=
`(2)/(2)`

`n=1`
