Answer:
n = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
2 - 1/2 n = 3n + 16
Combine the constants by subtracting 2 from both sides.
-1/2n = 3n + 14
Combine the variable by subtracting 3n from both sides.
-7/2n = 14
Multiply both sides by 2 to simplify the fraction.
-7n = 28
Isolate n by dividing by -7 on both sides.
n = -4
Check.
2 - 1/2(-4) = 3(-4) + 16
2 + 2 = -12 + 16
4 = 4
Your answer is correct.
