What is the value of n in the equation 1/2(n-1) - 3 = 3 - (2n + 3)?

natulia [17]3 years ago

Hey there! :)

1/2(n - 1) - 3 = 3 - (2n + 3)

Simplify.

1/2n - 1/2 - 3 = 3 - 2n - 3

Add like terms.

1/2n - 3 1/2 = -2n

Add 3 1/2 to both sides.

1/2n = -2n + 3 1/2

Then, add 2n to both sides.

1/2n + 2n = 3 1/2

Simplify!

2 1/2n = 3 1/2

Make everything into improper fractions!

5/2n = 7/2

Multiply everything by 2 to get rid of the denominators.

5/2n × 2 = 7/2 × 2

Simplify!

5n = 7

Divide both sides by 5.

n = 7/5

Hope this helped! :)

Answer:

1) f

4 * ¼ = 1 (Multiplicative inverse property)

2) c

6 * 1 = 6 (Identity property of multiplication)

3) h

5 + 7 = 7 + 5 (Commutative property of addition)

4) j

If 5 + 1 = 6 and 4 + 2 = 6, then 5 + 1 = 4 + 2 (Transitive property)

5) a

4(x - 3) = 4x - 12 (Distributive property)

6) i

3(5) = 5(3) (Commutative property of multiplication)

7) k

Rules that allow us to take short cuts when solving algebraic problems.(Properties)

8) d

5 * (3 * 2) = (5 * 3) * 2 (Associative property of multiplication)

9) g

4 + (-4) = 0 (Additive inverse property)

10) e

2 + 0 = 2 (Identity property of addition)

11) b

A + (B + C) = (A + B) + C (Associative property of addition)
