Question

1-2n=-14+n can someone plz solve and explain this promblem

Answer 1

Answer:

n=5

Step-by-step explanation:

1-2n=-14+n

Add 2n to each side to get all the "n" on one side

1-2n+2n =-14+n+2n

1 = -14 + 3n

Add 14 to each side to get all the constants on one side

1 +14 = -14 +14 +3n

15 =3n

Divide each side by 3 to isolate n

15/3 =3n/3

5 =n

Answer 2

Answer:

n=5

Step-by-step explanation:

You can combine like terms to isolate n on one side

Add +2n to both sides; 1-2n+2n=-14+n+2n --> 1=-14+3n

Add +14 to both sides; 1+14=-14+14+3n --> 15=3n

Divide both sides by +3; 15/3 =3n/3 --> 5=n

Now you've solved for you variable; n=5

I hope this helps!
