To find the solution of the equation 30.7 = 5n - 1 using a table, we can create a table by plugging in different values of 'n' and evaluating the equation.
Let's start with 'n' = 5:
5n - 1 = 5*5 - 1 = 25 - 1 = 24 (not equal to 30.7)
Next, let's try 'n' = 6:
5n - 1 = 5*6 - 1 = 30 - 1 = 29 (not equal to 30.7)
Moving on, let's test 'n' = 7:
5n - 1 = 5*7 - 1 = 35 - 1 = 34 (not equal to 30.7)
We can continue this process, plugging in different integer values of 'n' until we find a result that comes close to 30.7 without exceeding it.
However, since the solution lies between two consecutive integers, as stated in the problem, we can conclude that there is no integer solution for this equation.
Use a table to find the solution of the equation. If the solution lies between two consecutive integers, identify those integers.
30.7 = 5n - 1
