Question

Please help me on thiss

Answer 1

Answer:

-1.2

Step-by-step explanation:

3n + 5 = 1/2(11n + 16)

3n + 5 = 5.5n + 8

5 = 2.5n + 8

-3 = 2.5n

-3/2.5 = n

-1.2 = n

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Answer:

$n=-1.2$

Step-by-step explanation:

First, solve both sides of the equation:

$3n+5=\frac{1}{2} (11n+16)$

$3n+5=(\frac{1}{2} )(11n)+(\frac{1}{2} )(16)$ (Distribute)

$3n+5=\frac{11}{2} n+8$

Then, subtract 11/2 n from both sides:

$3n+5-\frac{11}{2}n=\frac{11}{2} n+8-\frac{11}{2} n$

$\frac{-5}{2}n+5=8$

Now, subtract 5 from both the sides:

$\frac{-5}{2} +5-5=8-5$

$\frac{-5}{2} n=3$

For the last step, multiply both the sides by 2 / -5

$(\frac{2}{-5} )*(\frac{-5}{2} )=(\frac{2}{-5} )*(3)$

$n=\frac{-6}{5}$

Convert it to decimal:

$n=-1.2$
