Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
6 = 1 + -2n + 5
Reorder the terms:
6 = 1 + 5 + -2n
Combine like terms: 1 + 5 = 6
6 = 6 + -2n
Add '-6' to each side of the equation.
6 + -6 = 6 + -6 + -2n
Combine like terms: 6 + -6 = 0
0 = 6 + -6 + -2n
Combine like terms: 6 + -6 = 0
0 = 0 + -2n
0 = -2n
Solving
0 = -2n
Solving for variable 'n'.
Move all terms containing n to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '2n' to each side of the equation.
0 + 2n = -2n + 2n
Remove the zero:
2n = -2n + 2n
Combine like terms: -2n + 2n = 0
2n = 0
Divide each side by '2'.
n = 0
Simplifying
n = 0
Answer:
x=2
Step by step:
f(x)=g(x)
3x+12= -9.5x-13 simplifies to the equation below
3x+9.5x= -13-12
12.5x= -25
next, divide by 12 on both sides to isolate the variable, x.
12.5x/12 = -25/12
x=-2
to check: 3(-2)+12= -95x(-2)-13
-6+12= 19-13
6=6 ✅
