N is a variable in algebra. Variables are letters that represent unknown numbers. Variables can be any letter of the alphabet.

Here's how to use n in an algebraic equation:

5 + n = 12

To find what N represents, let it be the only thing on the left side of the variable:

5 -5 + n = 12 - 5

n = 7

Happy to help!

Check the picture below.

thus then

$\bf \begin{cases}
y=100-a\\
y=a\sqrt{3}
\end{cases}\implies 100-a=a\sqrt{3}\implies 100=a+a\sqrt{3}
\\\\\\
100=a(1+\sqrt{3})\implies \boxed{\cfrac{100}{1+\sqrt{3}}=a}
\\\\\\
\textit{what is the altitude \underline{y} then?}\qquad y=100-a
\\\\\\
y=100-\cfrac{100}{1+\sqrt{3}}\implies y\approx 63.39745962156~yards$
