Answer:
n =-19
Step-by-step explanation:
3* (n+7) = -36
Distribute
3n+21 = -36
Subtract 21 from each side
3n+21-21 = -36-21
3n = -57
Divide by 3
3n/3 = -57/3
n =-19
Answer should be B.
second choice
4x - 2y = 14
y = 0.5x -1
Get just one variable on one side for both equations.
4x - 2y = 14 ⇒ 4x = 2y + 14 ⇒ 4x - 14 = 2y
y = 0.5x - 1 ⇒ x - 2 = 2y
Use the transitive property and then solve for x.
x-2 = 4x-14
12 = 3x
x = 4
