Question

I need help on this question 3n + 2 = 17

Answer 1

Answer:

The value of n is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Concept :

Here, we will use the below following steps to find a solution using the transposition method:

• Step 1 :- we will Identify the variables and constants in the given simple equation.
• Step 2 :- then we Simplify the equation in LHS and RHS.
• Step 3 :- Transpose or shift the term on the other side to solve the equation further simplest.
• Step 4 :- Simplify the equation using arithmetic operation as required that is mentioned in rule 1 or rule 2 of linear equations.
• Step 5 :- Then the result will be the solution for the given linear equation.

Solution :

By using the transposition method. we get,

${\dashrightarrow{\tt{3n + 2 = 17}}}$

${\dashrightarrow{\tt{3n= 17 - 2}}}$

${\dashrightarrow{\tt{3n= 15}}}$

${\dashrightarrow{\tt{n= 15 \div 3}}}$

${\dashrightarrow{\tt{n= \dfrac{15}{3}}}}$

${\dashrightarrow{\tt{n= \cancel{\dfrac{15}{3}}}}}$

${\dashrightarrow{\underline{\boxed{\tt{\red{n= 5}}}}}}$

Hence, the value of n is 5.

$\rule{300}{1.5}$

Answer 2

Question:-

Solve : 3n + 2 = 17

Answer:-

n = 5

Explanation:-

=> 3n + 2 = 17

=> 3n = 17-2

=> 3n = 15

=> n = 15/3

=> n = 5
