A) n = 13
B) n = 17
C) n = 30
D) n = 43

Answer 1

Its B

Answer 2

Ok so for a problem where you solve for a variable, you have to get the variable on one side of the equal sign by itself. To do this you have to do the opposite of what the question asks

Answer 3

n = 17

you just have to subtract 13 from 30

Answer 4

Since it says n+13, you do the opposite of addition

Answer 5

But guys plz don't have me get it wrong my mom says I need a 120% on extra credit

Answer 6

The opposite of addition is subtraction so you subtract 13 from both sides.

n+13=30
-13 -13 When you subtract 13 is canceled out so you have
n=30-13. 30-13 is 17.
n=17
