Question

What is the answer to the equation 8n + 10 = 50 solve for n

Answer 1

n = 5

Explanation:

8n +10 = 50

-10 -10

8n = 40

8 8

n = 5

Answer 2

Answer:
`n=5`

Add -10 to each side of the equation

`10 + -10 + 8n = 50 + -10`

Combine like terms

`0 + 8n = 50 + -10\\8n = 50 + -10\\8n = 40`

Divide each side by 8

`8n/8=40/8\\n=5`
