Q. Solve the equation. Check your solution.\newline5(5n5)=30-5(5 n-5)=30\newlineThe solution set is _____\_\_\_\_\_ (Type an integer or a simplified fraction).
  1. Distribute 5-5: Distribute the 5-5 across the parentheses.\newline5×5n+5×5=30-5 \times 5n + -5 \times -5 = 30\newlineThis simplifies to:\newline25n+25=30-25n + 25 = 30
  2. Subtract 2525: Subtract 2525 from both sides of the equation to isolate the term with the variable.\newline25n+2525=3025-25n + 25 - 25 = 30 - 25\newlineThis simplifies to:\newline25n=5-25n = 5
  3. Divide by 25-25: Divide both sides of the equation by 25-25 to solve for nn.25n/25=5/25-25n / -25 = 5 / -25 This simplifies to:n=1/5n = -1/5
