Answer 2

Answer:

n = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Move similar terms to one side. Here we are moving the 5 over to the side with 68 by subtracting it. We also have to subtract 5 from the other side too (what you do to one side you must do to the other)

7n + 5 = 68

     - 5   -5

      7n = 63

2) Isolate the variable. We do this by dividing the 7 from 7n. We also have to divide 7 from other other side too.

     7n = 63

     /7    /7

       n =9
