Move the "-21" over to the right side, then solve for n. Try it
OpenStudy (the_puppet1):
OpenStudy (sagewilson):
In order to find N you'll need to add 21 to both sides, this will remove the -21. You'll be left with 25N = 14 + 21 This will give you what?
RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):
what do you have
OpenStudy (dcolley):
What do you think the answer is?

add 21 to both sides of the equal sign
\[−21+25n=14\]\[+21~~~~~~~~~~~~+21\]\[−−−−−−−−\]
OpenStudy (the_puppet1):
21 + 21 = 42
RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):
.-. no like -21+21=?
then 14+21=?
OpenStudy (the_puppet1):
Oh :P
RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):
Ill write it differently. \[-21+21+25n=14+21\]

RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):
now you divide both sides by 25\[\frac{25n}{25}=\frac{35}{25}\]
RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):
\[\frac{25n}{25}=?\]
RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):
\[\frac{35}{25}=?\]
OpenStudy (the_puppet1):
It's A cause 35 Divided by 25 = 1/4
RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):
yup :D

no. no it isnt.
RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):
its 1.4 not 1/4
RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):
when you divide all the fractions that are available as answers and see which one equals 1.4

@RhondaSommer
OpenStudy (the_puppet1):
Idk if the 2nd is correct:
Solve the equation 14 + 14p = 21 for p.
A) 1/2
B) 1/3
C) 1/6
D) 1/8
I think it's D but I'm not sure if I'm correct
