Steps to solve
1) We have 5 +(-8)n = 29, which we can change to 5 - 8n = 29, because a positive times negative equals a negative
2) To isolate n, we move all of the other numbers to the other side of the equation. Since 5 is the only number on the left side, we subtract 5 from both sides
5 -5 - 8n = 29 -5
-8n = 24
3) Now, to find n, we want to just have one n on the left side instead of -8, so we divide the equation by -8 to find that
-8n/-8 = 24/8
n = 3

Therefore, n = 3

The answer is n=32 cause you add 8 to both sides and then u have 5+n=37 and then you subtract 5 from 5 and 37 and it leaves N=32

Alina [70]

Answer:

There are 20 booths and (38 - 20), or 18, tables

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent the number of tables with t and the number of booths with b.

We need to find the values of t and b.

(6 people/table)(t) + (4 people/booth)b = 188           (units are "people")

t + b = 38                                                                      (units are "seating units")

Solving the second equation for t, we get 38 - b = t.

Substitute 38 - b for t in the first equation:

(6 people/table)(38 - b) + (4 people/booth)b = 188

Then solve for b:   6(38) - 6b + 4b = 188, or:

228 - 2b = 188, or 2b = 228 - 188, or 2b = 40.  Thus, b = 20   (booths)

There are 20 booths and (38 - 20), or 18, tables.
