2n + 10 = 3n + 5

[math_celebrity]

2n + 10 = 3n + 5

Solve for n in the equation 2n + 10 = 3n + 5

Step 1: Group variables:
We need to group our variables 2n and 3n. To do that, we subtract 3n from both sides
2n + 10 - 3n = 3n + 5 - 3n

Step 2: Cancel 3n on the right side:
-n + 10 = 5

Step 3: Group constants:
We need to group our constants 10 and 5. To do that, we subtract 10 from both sides
-n + 10 - 10 = 5 - 10

Step 4: Cancel 10 on the left side:
-n = -5

Step 5: Divide each side of the equation by -1
-1n/-1 = -5/-1

n = 5
