Question

1. solve: $6n - 2 = n + 13$

a. $n = -3$
b. $n = -2$
c. $n = 2$
d. $n = 3$

Explanation:

Step1: Isolate $n$ terms

$6n - n - 2 = 13$

Step2: Simplify left side

$5n - 2 = 13$

Step3: Isolate $5n$

$5n = 13 + 2$

Step4: Calculate right side

$5n = 15$

Step5: Solve for $n$

$n = \frac{15}{5} = 3$

Answer:

D. $n = 3$
