Question 640508
{{{n+5(n-1)=7}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{n+5n-5=7}}} Distribute.



{{{6n-5=7}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{6n=7+5}}} Add {{{5}}} to both sides.



{{{6n=12}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{n=(12)/(6)}}} Divide both sides by {{{6}}} to isolate {{{n}}}.



{{{n=2}}} Reduce.
