+N+=+150+%2B+2.5T+
--------------------
(a)
+T+=+22+
+N+=+150+%2B+2.5%2A22+
+N+=+150+%2B+55+
+N+=+205+
-------------------
(b)
+N+=+150+%2B+2.5T+
Subtract +150+ from both sides
+2.5T+=+N+-+150+
Divide both sides by +2.5+
+T+=+%28+1%2F2.5+%29%2AN+-+60+
+T+=+.4N+-+60+
-------------------
(c)
+T+=+.4N+-+60+
+N+=+220+
+T+=+.4%2A220+-+60+
+T+=+88+-+60+
+T+=+28+
