Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum means add

-9+n

Multiply this by 1/2

1/2(-9+n)

This is equal to 20

1/2(-9+n) = 20

Solve

Multiply each side by 2 to get rid of the fraction

2*1/2(-9+n) = 20*2

-9+n = 40

Add 9 to each side

-9+9 +n = 40+9

n = 49

Answer:

3 to the 4th power.

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically, here 3 to the 3rd power is 27. Multiplying it by 3 is only adding another power, making it 81, which is the same answer to 3 to the 4th power if that makes sense.
