In order to to solve the equation and to find the value of
n for the identity to be tru, we'll follow the steps:
-
First, we'll remove the brackets, both sides:
5(2+n) =
3(n+6)
10 + 5n = 3n + 18
-
Now, we'll isolate the terms that contain "n", to the left side. For this reason, we'll
subtract 3n both sides:
10 + 5n - 3n = 3n - 3n +
18
We'll reduce like terms and we'll
get:
10 + 2n = 0 + 18
- Now,
we'll subtract 10 both sides:
10 + 2n - 10 = 18 -
10
We'll reduce like terms and we'll
get:
2n = 8
We'll divide by 2,
both sides:
n =
8/2
n =
4
So, the solution of the
given equation is n = 4.
- To verify the
equation, we'll input the value 4 in the given
expression:
5(2+4) =
3(4+6)
We'll calculate the sum in each pair of
brackets:
5 * 6 = 3 * 10
30 =
30
The identity is verified for n = 4, so the
solution n = 4 is valid.
