Question

How many solutions does this equation have?

–5n = 2 − 6n

Answer 1

Answer:

One solution

Step-by-step explanation:

–5n = 2 − 6n

–5n +6n = 2 − 6n + 6n (Addition Property of Equality)

n = 2

There is one solution to this equation. The value of 'n' is 2.

Answer 2

Answer:

n = 2 thus 1 solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for n:

-5 n = 2 - 6 n

Add 6 n to both sides:

6 n - 5 n = (6 n - 6 n) + 2

6 n - 6 n = 0:

6 n - 5 n = 2

6 n - 5 n = n:

Answer: n = 2
