Question

type the correct answer in the box. use numerals instead of words. what value of n makes the equation true? $-\frac{1}{5}n + 7 = 2$ $n = \square$

Explanation:

Step1: Subtract 7 from both sides

$-\frac{1}{5}n + 7 - 7 = 2 - 7$
$-\frac{1}{5}n = -5$

Step2: Multiply both sides by -5

$(-5)\times(-\frac{1}{5}n) = -5\times(-5)$
$n = 25$

Answer:

25
