Step-by-step explanation:
Use the distributive formula to solve for n:
-a(b + c) = -ab - ac
So, to solve this you would have to use the distributive property:
-1/3n - 5 = -2
Add 5 to both sides
-1/3n - 5 + 5 = -2 + 5
-1/3n = 3
Now, multiply -3 from both sides
-1/3 * -3 n = 3 * -3
Simplify
n = -9

Answer:
Age of Mel is 25 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that,the sum of Ali and Mel's age is 39. If Mel is 3 years younger than twice Ali's age.
Let 'x' be the Ali's age and 'y' be the Mel's age
<u>To find the value of x and y</u>
sum of Ali and Mel's age is 39
⇒ x + y = 39 ------(1)
Mel is 3 years younger than twice Ali's age
⇒ y = 2x - 3 -------(2)
⇒ 2x - y = 3 -----(3)
(1) + (3) ⇒
x + y = 39
2x - y = 3
----------------
3x = 42
x = 42/3 = 14
y = 2x - 3 = 14*2 - 3 = 25
Therefore the age of Ali = 14
Age of Mel = 25
