Answer :
n+1-3n=5+n+1-2
Simplify it
-2n+1 = n+4
Add 2n to both sides
1 = 3n+4
Subtract 4 from both sides
-3 = 3n
Divide by 3
n = -1
Simplify it
-2n+1 = n+4
Add 2n to both sides
1 = 3n+4
Subtract 4 from both sides
-3 = 3n
Divide by 3
n = -1
n + 1 - 3n = -5 + n + 1 - 2
Combine like terms:
n - 3n = -2n
-2n + 1 = -5 + n + 1 - 2
Combine like terms:
-5 + 1 - 2 = -6
-2n + 1 = n - 6
Subtract 'n' to both sides:
-3n + 1 = -6
Subtract 1 to both sides:
-3n = -7
Divide -3 to both sides:
n = 2 1/3 or 7/3
Combine like terms:
n - 3n = -2n
-2n + 1 = -5 + n + 1 - 2
Combine like terms:
-5 + 1 - 2 = -6
-2n + 1 = n - 6
Subtract 'n' to both sides:
-3n + 1 = -6
Subtract 1 to both sides:
-3n = -7
Divide -3 to both sides:
n = 2 1/3 or 7/3
