Responses
m+12(5)=150
m plus 12 Left Parenthesis 5 Right Parenthesis equals 150
12m+5=150
12 m plus 5 equals 150
5(m+12)=150
5 Left Parenthesis m plus 12 Right Parenthesis equals 150
12(m+5)=150
12 left parenthesis m plus 5 right parenthesis equals 150

Responses
m + 12 (5) = 150
12m + 5 = 150
5(m + 12) = 150
12(m + 5) = 150
The correct expression is:
m + 12(5) = 150

To solve the equation -2(4-n) = 24, we can begin by distributing the -2 to both terms inside the parentheses:
-2(4) - (-2)(n) = 24
-8 + 2n = 24
Next, we can isolate the variable term by adding 8 to both sides:
-8 + 2n + 8 = 24 + 8
2n = 32
Finally, we solve for n by dividing both sides by 2:
2n/2 = 32/2
n = 16
Therefore, the solution to the equation is n = 16.
