To solve for x in the equation 102.5(x-11.92) = 71.6, we can follow these steps:

1. Divide both sides of the equation by 102.5:

(x-11.92) = 71.6/102.5

2. Simplify the right-hand side of the equation:

(x-11.92) = 0.69854

3. Add 11.92 to both sides of the equation:

x = 0.69854 + 11.92

4. Simplify:

x = 12.61854

Rounded to three decimal places, the solution for x is 12.619.

To solve for n in the equation 50.3(n+9.25) = -120.72, we can follow these steps:

1. Divide both sides of the equation by 50.3:

(n+9.25) = -120.72/50.3

2. Simplify the right-hand side of the equation:

(n+9.25) = -2.401196804

3. Subtract 9.25 from both sides of the equation:

n = -2.401196804 - 9.25

4. Simplify:

n = -11.651196804

Therefore, the solution for n is -11.65.

I apologize for the incorrect responses. Let's recheck the answers:

To solve for x in the equation 102.5(x-11.92) = 71.6:

1. Divide both sides of the equation by 102.5:
(x-11.92) = 71.6/102.5

2. Simplify the right-hand side of the equation:
(x-11.92) = 0.69854

3. Add 11.92 to both sides of the equation:
x = 0.69854 + 11.92

4. Simplify:
x = 12.61854

Rounded to three decimal places, the solution for x is 12.619.

To solve for n in the equation 50.3(n+9.25) = -120.72:
