N x 2 = 12 + 5n
2n - 5n = 12
-3n = 12
3n = -12
n = -4
Answer:
3x + 4 = 12 :- x = 8 / 3
Step-by-step explanation:
3x + 4 = 12
Move all terms not containing x to the right side of the equation.
Subtract 4 from both sides of the equation.
3x = 12 - 4
Subtract 4 from 12.
3x = 8
Divide each term by 3 and simplify.
Divide each term in 3x = 8 by 3.
3x / 3 = 8 / 3
Cancel the common factor of 3.
Divide x by 1.
x = 8 / 3
The result can be shown in multiple forms.
Exact Form:
x = 8 / 3
Decimal Form:
x = 2.6
Mixed Number Form:
x = 2 2/3
Answer:
= 6
Step-by-step explanation:
in the third step, they did 2 x -12 and got 24. It should’ve been -24 since it was a positive times a negative. It shouldve been
-24 - (-30)
-24 + 30
= 6
