Question

Solve the following equation, and check your solution. Be sure to show all work.
Solve -17 + n/5 = 33.

Answer 1

Answer:

n=250

Step-by-step explanation:

-17 + n/5 = 33

Add 17 to both sides

-17 +n/5 + 17 = 33 + 17

Then we simpllify  

n/5 = 50

Multiply 5 to both sides

n/5x5 = 50x5

n = 250

To check let's substitute n with 250.

-17+250/5

250/5=50

-17+50

33  

so the answer is correct
