\left(5+5+\left(n-1\right)d\right)n=390\times 2
Multiply both sides by 2.
\left(10+\left(n-1\right)d\right)n=390\times 2
Add 5 and 5 to get 10.
\left(10+nd-d\right)n=390\times 2
Use the distributive property to multiply n-1 by d.
10n+dn^{2}-dn=390\times 2
Use the distributive property to multiply 10+nd-d by n.
10n+dn^{2}-dn=780
Multiply 390 and 2 to get 780.
dn^{2}-dn=780-10n
Subtract 10n from both sides.
\left(n^{2}-n\right)d=780-10n
Combine all terms containing d.
\frac{\left(n^{2}-n\right)d}{n^{2}-n}=\frac{780-10n}{n^{2}-n}
Divide both sides by n^{2}-n.
d=\frac{780-10n}{n^{2}-n}
Dividing by n^{2}-n undoes the multiplication by n^{2}-n.
d=\frac{10\left(78-n\right)}{n\left(n-1\right)}
Divide 780-10n by n^{2}-n.
