Well, BEDMAS contains the answer

Brackets first
We have a variable here so we won’t touch it for now

Multiplication
Cancel the fraction by multiplying by the denominator
-1(n+15) = -6

Divide by -1 to isolate the brackets
N+15 = 6

Add 15 to both sides
N = 21

Double check by putting 21 instead of n into the equation

So for this one you need to distribute -1/3 to n and 15........

-1/3n-5= -2

then to get "n" by itself you need to then add 15 on both sides. 15 will cancel out with -15 (because it becomes 0)...... -1/3n= 3

Then you multiply -3/1 on both sides (you do that to get n by itself (cancellation)), and multiply -3/1 with 3......... n= -9 (ANSWER)

irga5000 [103]

We have been given that Jin cut a round gelatin dessert into 8 equal pieces. Seven of the pieces were eaten. We are asked to find the angle measure of the dessert that was left.

We know that there are 360 degrees degrees in a circle all the way around the center.

Since Jin cut all pieces of same size, so angle measure of all pieces will be equal.

To find the angle measure of each piece, we will divide 360 by 8.

\text{Angle measure of each piece of dessert}=\frac{360^{\circ}}{8}

\text{Angle measure of each piece of dessert}=45^{\circ}

Therefore, the angle measure of the dessert left dessert piece is 45 degrees and option D is the correct choice.
