Answer 1

Answer:

n+3 = 15 ; n = 12

3n -6 = 12;  n=6

Step-by-step explanation:

more than means it comes after

a number

n

3 more than

n+3

is 15

n+3 = 15

Subtract 3 from each side

n+3-3 = 15-3

n = 12

Subtract from comes after

three times a number

3n  

six subtracted from

3n -6

is 12 means equal to

3n -6 = 12

To solve add 6 to each side

3n -6+6 =12+6

3n = 18

Divide by 3

3n/3 =18/3

n =6
