multiply the first part 5(3-2n)= 15 -10n
the first part is equal to 15-10n
put it in the equation
now the equation would be 15-10n = 65
subtract 15 from both sides which would equal 10n= 50
then u divide 10 by both sides and n equals to 5

Step by step:
5 (3- 2n)=65
3-2n=13
2n=10
n=-5

Check:

5 (3- 2(-5))=65
5(3+10)=65
5(13)=65
65=65

we divide both sides by 5: (3-2n)=13
we take off the brackets, not needed: 3-2n = 13
we take the 3 to the other side cz we need the (n)s alone on one side:
-2n = 13-3 [ when it's sent to the othe side, the sign changes from negative to positive and vice versa]
-2n = 10
divide both sides by two -n = 5
switch signs n= -5
=) pretty easy

Step 1: distribute the 5 through out to give you 15-10n=65
Step 2: subtract the 15 from both sides -10n=50
Step 3: divide by-10 on both sides to get value for "n"
-10n/-10=50/-10
n=-5

n=-5

first you distrubute the five into (3-2n) and come up with (15-10n). then you subtract the 15 from (15-10n) you have to also subtract from the 65 and get (-10n=50). then you divide -10 from (-10n) also you divide 50 with -10 and get n=-5.

divide each side by 5, you now have 3-2n = 13. subtract 3 from each siden you now have 2n = 10. divide each side by 2, you know have n = 5

5 (3- 2n)=65
(3-2n)=13
-2n=10
2n= -10
n= -5

the answer is -5. Use the order of operations. Divide both side by 5, subtract 3, divide by -2, and get -5. Sure hope this is the correct answer.

5(3-2n)=65

Divide each side by 5.

(3-2n)=13

Isolate the variable.

3-13 =2n

-10=2n

-5 = n

There ye go.
