Answer 1

To solve for n in the equation 50.3(n 9.25) = −120.72, we can start by distributing the 50.3 to both terms inside the parentheses:

50.3n - (50.3 * 9.25) = -120.72

Next, we can simplify the expression within the parentheses:

50.3n - 464.075 = -120.72

To isolate the variable term, we can add 464.075 to both sides of the equation:

50.3n = 343.355

Finally, we can solve for n by dividing both sides of the equation by 50.3:

n = 343.355/50.3

Simplifying this expression gives us:

n ≈ 6.829

Rounding to two decimal places, we get:

n ≈ 6.83

Therefore, the correct answer is 6.85.
