Answer:

n= -9

Step-by-step explanation:

-1/3(n+15) = -1/3 * n and -1/3* 15

-1/3*n=  -1/3n

-1/3*15= -5

-1/3n -5= -2

Add 5 to both sides

-1/3n = 3

Now divide 3 by -1/3

3/ (-1/3) = -9

n= -9

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distributive formula to solve for n:

-a(b + c) = -ab - ac

So, to solve this you would have to use the distributive property:

-1/3n - 5 = -2

Add 5 to both sides

-1/3n - 5 + 5 = -2 + 5

-1/3n = 3

Now, multiply -3 from both sides

-1/3 * -3 n = 3 * -3

Simplify

n = -9

Hope that helped!!

What is one and one fourth times 30
n200080 [17]
1 1/4*30=37.5 because, first to make this easier to work with I like to turn the fraction into a decimal like so, 1/4=.25 because 1/4=.25 so 1/4=.25, so now we have 1.25*30=? What this is pretty much saying is that 30+(25% of 30)=? Which to solve this we just need to find how much 25% is of 30 which is .25*30=7.5 because 7.5*4=30 making it true that this is 25% of 30. Now what we have to do is take 30+7.5 (because we have a 1 infront of the 25% we add this instead of subtract it, if we had no whole number infront of the 30 and where solving this that way we would have to subtract instead of add) which adds up to be are end answer of 37.5.

Hope that this helps and makes sense, Enjoy!=)

Solve |5x+30|=10x ......
Orlov [11]

Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve out ,

\implies |5x + 30| = 10x

We can write it as ,

\implies 5x + 30 = \pm 10x

On simplyfing further,

\implies 5x + 30 =  10x \quad or \quad 5x +30=-10x

On solving the above equation , we will get ,

\implies \boxed{ x = 6,-2}

Now we know that the value of modulus is never negative so when we will put x is equal to 2 on the RHS we will get -20 which is not possible . Therefore , the extraneous root is -2 .

<u>Option</u><u> </u><u>A </u><u>is </u><u>correct</u><u> </u><u>.</u>
