Question

4(n + 9) = -4 = ? . -2(3n - 5) = 34

Answer 1

The answers are
n = -10
n = -4

Answer 2

Answer:

1. n=-10 2.n=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

4(n+9)=−4

(4)(n)+(4)(9)=−4(Distribute)

4n+36=−4

Step 2: Subtract 36 from both sides.

4n+36−36=−4−36

4n=−40

Step 3: Divide both sides by 4.

$\frac{4n}{4} =\frac{-40}{4}$

n=-10

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−2(3n−5)=34

(−2)(3n)+(−2)(−5)=34(Distribute)

−6n+10=34

Step 2: Subtract 10 from both sides.

−6n+10−10=34−10

−6n=24

Step 3: Divide both sides by -6.

$\frac{-6n}{6}= \frac{24}{-6}$

n=-4

Hope this helps :)
