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!!

Levart [38]
Let thw second integer be x
then the first = 2x
and the third integer is = 6+x
their sum = 74
x+2x+6+x = 74
4x +6 = 74
4x = 74-6 =68
x =68÷4
x = 17
then the first integer is 2×17 = 34
the third integer is 17+6 = 23
