Question

9-5n+1=15
n=
i still don't understand

Answer 1

You need to solve for "n".

Answer 2

We want to get n alone on one side of the equation.
First combine like terms.
9 - 5n + 1 = 15 (9 + 1)
10 - 5n = 15

Answer 3

Subtract the 10 from both sides. Remember to keep the symbol in front of each number/term.
10 - 5n = 15
-10 -10
-5n = 5

Answer 4

Now divide both sides by -5.
\[\frac{ -5n }{ -5 } = \frac{ 5 }{ -5 }\]n = -1
