( n + -2 ) x ( n - -4 ) = 27<br><br> What are the two n's?
Flauer [41]

Simplify n + -2 to n - 2

(n - 2)(n + 4) = 27

Expand

n^2 + 4n - 2n - 8 = 27

Simplify n^2 + 4n - 2n - 8 to n^2 + 2n - 8

n^2 + 2n - 8 = 27

Move all terms to one side

n^2 + 2n - 8 - 27 = 0

Simplify n^2 + 2n - 8 - 27 to n^2 + 2n - 35

n^2 + 2n - 35 = 0

Factor n^2 + 2n - 35

(n - 5)(n + 7) = 0

Solve for n

<u>n = 5, -7</u>
