Our objective is to isolate n one side of the equation. The steps are as follows...
a=m-n
(Add n to both sides)
a+n=m-n+n
(The -n and +n cancel out, on the right side of the equation)
a+n=m
(Now subtract a from both sides)
a+n-a=m+a
(The +a and -a cancel out, on the right side of the equation)
n=m+a
(x+1)-5(x+1+3)
(x+1)-5(x+4)
x + 1 - 5x - 20
-4x - 19
Answer:
