Step-by-step explanation:
a= 16x+3-14x+15
combine like terms, 16x-14x= 2x
so,
2x+3+15,
15+3=18
18=2x, divide 18 by 2
x=9
b) *open the parenthesis* -1/6 *24x = -4x
-1/6*60 = -10
-4x- (-10)= -4x+10
-4x+10+2x= -4x+2x= -2x
-2x=10 = 2x=-10 = x=-5

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define Equation</u>
6n + 7 = 55
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>n</u></em>
- Subtract 7 on both sides: 6n = 48
- Divide 6 on both sides: n = 8
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Plug in n into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute in <em>n</em>: 6(8) + 7 = 55
- Multiply: 48 + 7 = 55
- Add: 55 = 55
Here we see that 55 does indeed equal 55.
∴ n = 8 is a solution of the equation.
