4n-10n+35=1-2

Question

How do I get x by its self

 

Answer 1

Do you mean "n" by itself?

4n-10n+35=1-2

First, add 2 to both sides

4n-10n+37=1

Then, combine your unknown variable: 4n-10n=-6n

-6n+37=1

Then subtract 37 from both sides

-6n=-36

Then divide by 6

-n=-6

 

Answer 2

4n - 10n + 35 = 1 - 2

4n - 10n + 35 -35 = 1 -2 -35   (subtract 35 from both sides)

4n - 10n = 1 -2 -35                 (simplify)

-6n = -36

-6n/-6 = -36/-6                      (divide each side by -6)

n = 6
