so here we solve this , ok !

10(11n+5)= -10n-10+90n

110n+50= -10n+90n-10         ( here in the first part we have multiplied 10 and 11n and 10 and 5 ! in the second we have just arranged the same values together )

110n+50=80n-10   ( here we have just minussed the 10n and 90n as u can see in the 2nd part)

110n-80n=-50-10    (here we have arranged the same values together )

30n=-60     ( here we have minussed in the 1st part and added in the second )

n=-60/30  (divide 60 and 30 gives -2 )

n=-2   So ur answer or n is -2 !

If you are wondering how you can make sure that your answer is right, you can always check your answer by putting the number that n equals in the original equation.

Let's put rosala's n = -2 in to make sure it works!

10(11n+5)=-10n-10+90n

10(11(-2)+5)=-10(-2)-10+90(-2)

10((-22)+5) = (+20)-10+(-180)

10(-17) = 20-10-180

-170 = 10-180

-170 = -170

 

This is a true statement, -170 does equal -170, so we know the answer is right.

Anyway, hope this helped.

No, I didn't doubt your answer rosala. I just wanted to show that you could check your answers pretty easily in problems like this. Your a great mathematician, rosala!

sorry guys but im workin' on a hard access class & yall are my only hope to help me pass. lol 

For each of the following problems, set up an equation and solve.  Write a sentence explaining your answer.

 

  1.       Renee wants to take her daughter and some of her daughter’s friends to the movies.  A movie ticket is $8.  Renee budgets $50.  How many of her daughter’s friends can go to the movies?
         

 

 

  1.       A plumber charges a flat rate of $50 and $25 an hour for the work.  The plumber received $150 for his services.  How many hours did the plumber work?

Problem answered this question for you correctly a little while ago on an earlier post. One that you stuffed up by putting a second nonsense question in.

If you didnt understand you should have said so. Instead you gave problem thumbs down for helping you and reposted your question.  

You are a very rude girl.
