Question

0.3(n - 5) = 0.4 -0.2 solve for n​

Answer 1

Answer:

n = 5.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer: n=5.666667

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

0.3(n−5)=0.4−0.2

(0.3)(n)+(0.3)(−5)=0.4+−0.2(Distribute)

0.3n+−1.5=0.4+−0.2

0.3n−1.5=(0.4+−0.2)(Combine Like Terms)

0.3n−1.5=0.2

0.3n−1.5=0.2

Step 2: Add 1.5 to both sides.

0.3n−1.5+1.5=0.2+1.5

0.3n=1.7

Step 3: Divide both sides by 0.3.

0.3n/0.3 = 1.7/0.3

n=5.666667
