Question

What is the answer of 6=1-2n+5

Answer 1

6 = 1 - 2n +5
5 = -2n +5
0 = -2n

n=0

Answer 2

IF you are solving for N, then I think this is the way to do it.


6=1-2n+5

combine light terms:
6=(1+5)-2n
6=-2n+6
now try to get N by itself so you subtract 6 on both side:

6=-2n+6
-6        -6
now you have 0=-2n or -2n=0
now divide both sides by -2
-2n/-2 = 0/-2

so it's a no solution. but if it doesn't give you that option, then n=0
