one half the sum of a given number and six is the same as ten decreased by the difference obtained when five is subtracted from the number. find the number
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Solve this equation
\n" ); document.write( " $\"1%2F2\"$ (n+6) = 10 - (n-5)
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( " $\"1%2F2\"$ (n+6) = 10 - n + 5
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( " $\"1%2F2\"$ (n+6) = 15 - n
\n" ); document.write( "multiply both sides by 2
\n" ); document.write( "n + 6 = 2(15-n)
\n" ); document.write( "you should be able to finish this, check your solution in the original equation
