A number, n, is added to 15 less than 3 times itself. The result is 101. Which of the following can be an equation can be used to find the value of n?
a.n + (3n - 15) = 101
b.4n - 15 = 101

Respuesta :

Answer:

Option a and  b both are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given the information that is: n is added to 15 less than 3 times itself.

The result is 101.

So, the number is 15 less than 3 times to itself means: 3n-15

And n is added to it that means:

n+(3n-15)

And its result is 101 so,

n+(3n-15)=101

After simplification of above expression gives:

4n-15=101.

Therefore, Option a and b both are correct.
