Question

What is the solution for the equation 14.8=n-0.3?

Answer 1

Question: What is the solution for the equation?

Equation: 14.8 = n - 0.3

The correct answer is D: n= 15.1

Answer 2

Simplifying
 14.8 = n + -0.3
 Reorder the terms:
14.8 = -0.3 + n
 Solving
14.8 = -0.3 + n
 Solving for variable 'n'.
  Move all terms containing n to the left, all other terms to the right.
 Add '-1n' to each side of the equation.
14.8 + -1n = -0.3 + n + -1n
 Combine like terms: n + -1n = 0
14.8 + -1n = -0.3 + 0
14.8 + -1n = -0.3
 Add '-14.8' to each side of the equation.
14.8 + -14.8 + -1n = -0.3 + -14.8
Combine like terms: 14.8 + -14.8 = 0.0
0.0 + -1n = -0.3 + -14.8
-1n = -0.3 + -14.8
 Combine like terms: -0.3 + -14.8 = -15.1
-1n = -15.1
 Divide each side by '-1'.
n = 15.1
 Simplifying
n = 15.1

Hope this helps :)
