N/d = 15
d= 4 + 3n

d=n/15
n/15=4+3n
n=60+45n
44n=-60
n=-15/11
-15/11 / d = 15
-15/11 = 15d
d=-1/11

15/11 / 1/11. = 15

Can someone solve 5 + 2x = + 6 and n - 3n = 14 - 4n and 7 ( 5a - 4 ) - 1 = 14 - 8a

professor190 [17]

Answer:

5 + 2x = 6

2x = 6-5

2x = 1

x = 0.5

n -3n = 14 -4n

-2n = 14-4n (since 4n is negative, change the sign to make it positive and then add 4n to both sides of the equation)

2n = 14

n = 7

7 (5a - 4) - 1 = 14 - 8a

35a - 28 - 1 = 14 -8a

35a -29 = 14 - 8a

43a = 43

a = 1
