Question

Solve the equation-2(n+3)=13

Answer 1

Answer:

im thinking n is 6.5 not sure wait not 6.5 its 3.5

Answer 2

Answer:

Use distributive property

Divide both sides by (-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

First method: Use distributive property:

-2(n + 3) = 13

-2n - 6 = 13    

      -2n = 13 + 6

      -2n = 19

         n = 19/-2

        n = -9.5

2) Divide both sides by (-2)

-2(n +33) = 13

$\frac{-2(n + 3)}{2}=\frac{13}{-2}\\\\n + 3 = -6.5\\ n = -6.5 - 3\\ n = -9.5$
