Question

Solve for n: 1-5|n-9|=-74 I need answer by 12:10, please help!!!

Answer 1

Answer:

$n=-6, 24$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given:

$1-5|n-9|=-74$

Subtract 1 from both sides:

$-5|n-9|=-75$

Divide both sides by -5:

$|n-9|=15$

By definition of absolute value:

$(n-9)=15\text{ or } -(n-9)=15$

Solve for each case:

$n=24\text{ or } n=-15+9=-6$

Therefore, our two solutions are:

$n=-6, 24$

Answer 2

The answer is -6, 24
