51(x - 21) = x + 58
<em><u>Distributive property</u></em>
51x - 1071 = x + 58
<em><u>Subtract x from both sides</u></em>
50x - 1071 = 58
<em><u>Add 1071 to both sides</u></em>
50x = 1129
<em><u>Divide both sides by 50</u></em>
x = 22.58
Hi there,
5n - 9 + 4n + 5
5n - 4n = 5 + 9
Hence, N = 14
Hope this helps :)
