Question

Double the sum of a number and three is the same as the number subtracted by nine

Answer 1

Answer:

2(n+3) = n-9

Step-by-step explanation:

2(n+3) = n-9

Step 1: Multiply (n+3) by two; 2n + 6

Step 2: Subtract n on both sides; n+6= -9

Step 3: Subtract 6 on both sides; n= -9 - 6

Step 4: Add -9 and -6; -15

Solution: n= -15
