Question

Determine the solution to the following problem:n/5+10=−20

Answer 1

To solve the equation n/5 + 10 = -20, we can start by getting rid of the 10 on the left side of the equation by subtracting 10 from both sides:

n/5 = -20 - 10
n/5 = -30

Next, we can multiply both sides of the equation by 5 to isolate n:

5 * (n/5) = -30 * 5
n = -150

Therefore, the solution to the equation n/5 + 10 = -20 is n = -150.
