1.8 + 7n = 9.5 - 4n
You did well on the last problem. I'm sure you can do this one, too. I'll be glad to check it.
I have a question a have a math just like that its for math homework l don't understand the question can you help me figure out what's the answer.
From Melissa.
To solve the equation 1.8 + 7n = 9.5 - 4n, we need to isolate the variable n on one side of the equation.
First, we'll start by combining like terms on both sides of the equation.
On the left side, we have 1.8 + 7n. There are no like terms to combine here.
On the right side, we have 9.5 - 4n. Again, there are no like terms to combine.
Next, we want to get rid of any constants on either side of the equation. We can do this by rearranging the equation and moving the constants to one side.
Let's move the terms with n to the left side and the constant terms to the right side:
1.8 + 7n + 4n = 9.5 - 4n + 4n
Simplifying both sides of the equation gives us:
1.8 + 11n = 9.5
Now, we want to isolate the variable n. We can do this by moving the constant term 1.8 to the right side of the equation.
Subtracting 1.8 from both sides gives us:
1.8 - 1.8 + 11n = 9.5 - 1.8
Simplifying further, we get:
11n = 7.7
To solve for n, we divide both sides of the equation by 11:
(11n) / 11 = 7.7 / 11
Simplifying, we find:
n = 0.7
So, the solution to the equation 1.8 + 7n = 9.5 - 4n is n = 0.7.
