Answer:
open the brackets
mx+mn=n
mx=n-mn
since we want to know the value of x , then we divide both sides with m ,thus giving us
x=n/m - n
x = [tex]\frac{n-mn}{m}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
m(x + n) = n ← distribute parenthesis on left side by m
mx + mn = n ( subtract mn from both sides )
mx = n - mn ( isolate x by dividing both sides by m )
