1. 4(n+3)=16, n+3=4, n=1
2. m/4+3=24, m/4=21, m=84
1. three added to a number n implies n+3, 4 times that sum is 4 (n+3), to solve divide both sides by 4 then subtract three from both sides.
2. a number divided by 4 means n/4 adding it to three n/4+3, to solve subtract 3 from both sides then multiply both sides by 4
Negative 5 is to your left 5 is to your right hope that helps?
He planted D. 29,928 Bulbs
First Add up all the bulbs.
Then multiply the # of bulbs with the # of fields.
B=7
3(b-4)+5b=44
3b-12+5b=44
8b=44+12
8b=56
b=7
