Use a transformation to solve the equation.
n + 11.5 = –29
Question 5 options:
n = –17.5
n = 40.5
n = 17.5
n = –40.5
To isolate the variable n, we can use a transformation by subtracting 11.5 from both sides of the equation:
n + 11.5 - 11.5 = -29 - 11.5
This simplifies to:
n = -40.5
Therefore, the solution to the equation is n = -40.5.
