3( n+5 )=12
whats is the answer

n = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

-3 (n + 5) = 12   Use the distributive property (-3 · n) + (-3 · 5) = 12

-3n - 15 = 12   Add 15 to both sides

-3n = 27   Divide both sides by -3

n = -9

Check your answer by plugging -9 in for n.

-3 (n + 5) = 12   Replace n with -9

-3 (-9 + 5) = 12   Add

-3 (-4) = 12   Multiply

12 = 12

-3n = 27

n = 27 : (-3)

n = -9

check

-3 * (-9 + 5) = 12

-3 * (-4) = 12
