Answer:

n = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{n + 5}{-16} = -1

We want to solve for n.

Currently, it is in a fraction.

Let's get rid of the denominator by multiplying both sides by -16.

(n + 5) = (-1)(-16)

(n + 5) = 16

Isolate n further by subtracting 5 from both sides.

n = 16 - 5

n = 11

Let's check our answer by plugging n = 11 back into the original equation.

\frac{n + 5}{-16} = -1

Plug n = 11 in.

\frac{11 + 5}{-16} = -1

Add.

\frac{16}{-16} = -1

Simplify.

-1 = -1

Your answer is correct!

Hope this helps!

Towns X, Y, and Z are on the same straight road. Town Y is between Town X and Town Z. Town X is 57 miles from Town Z, and Town Y
Ray Of Light [21]
The distance between town X and Town Y is equal to the difference between the distance between Town X and Town Z and the distance from Town Y and Town Z. Mathematically
                      d (X-Y) = d (X-Z) - d(Y-Z)
Substituting,
                      d(X-Y) = 57 miles - 28 miles = 29 miles
Thus, the distance from Town X to Town Y is 29 miles.
