Question

will give a medal 2(n - 3) + 5 = 3(n - 1)

Answer 1

so far i have that u distribute 2n-6+5=3n-3

Answer 2

but what do i do from there

Answer 3

plz help me

Answer 4

2n-6+5 = 3n-3

On the left side, what is -6 + 5 = ?

Answer 5

Answer just what this sum is: -6 + 5 =

Answer 6

@lubavasilyuk

Answer 7

why did u flip flop the 6 and 5?

Answer 8

oh wait sorry

Answer 9

-6 plus 5 is -1

Answer 10

2n-6+5 = 3n-3

2n -1 = 3n - 3

The object is to get the n terms on one side and the constant terms on the other

2n -1 = 3n - 3
+1 +1 ---> Add one to both sides and post what you get
--------------

Answer 11

I think the answer is n = 2. Is it right?

Answer 12

I don't know because I have not worked the problem yet.

2n-6+5=3n-3

2n - 1 = 3n - 3

2n = 3n - 3 + 1

2n = 3n - 2

2n - 3n = -2

next step?

Answer 13

How do you know that n does not equal -2?

Answer 14

-1n=-2?

Answer 15

i get how u are solving everyhing its just that next part
the 2n-3n=-2

Answer 16

hellooooo

Answer 18

Okay.

2n-6+5=3n-3
2n - 1 = 3n - 3
2n = 3n - 3 + 1
2n = 3n - 2
2n - 3n = -2
-n = -2
Multiply both sides by (-1)
(-1)*(-n) = (-1)*(-2)

n = 2

Answer 19

are u 100 percent sure?

Answer 20

Let's check it in the original equation:

2(n - 3) + 5 = 3(n - 1)

In place of n, put 2.

2(2 - 3) + 5 = 3(2 - 1)

2*(-1) + 5 = 3*(1) ----> Is this statement true or false @lubavasilyuk

Answer 21

Is -2 + 5 = 3? If so, then n = 2 is correct.

Answer 22

yes

omg thank u so much
