When working with equations you have to get the variable (n) by itself. You would add +8 to both negative 8 and negative 21, this would eliminate the 8, and then you would add the eight to negative 21, (21-8), which equals 13. And then add the negative sign back on, equaling -13.
The order that the pitcher threw is F, C, F, F, C, C, F, F, F then the next five pitches are C, C, C, C, F, F, F, F, F assuming the pitcher maintains this order
