Question

-2(4n-6)=22 what is n?

Answer 1

Answer:

   -5 / 4

Step-by-step explanation:

 

          ~ Using distributive property distribute:

     -8n + 12 = 22

          ~ Use transposition method:

         -8n = 22 - 12 [ 12 comes to the other side. As it was (+) on the LHS when

                                      it comes to the RHS it becomes (-) ]  

                 = 10

              n = 10 / -8

                  =  -5 / 4                

Hope it helps

Wishing u a gr8 day

Answer 2

Answer: n = 5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−2(4n−6)=22

(−2)(4n)+(−2)(−6)=22(Distribute)

−8n+12=22

Step 2: Subtract 12 from both sides.

−8n+12−12=22−12

−8n=10

Step 3: Divide both sides by -8.

-8n/-8 = 10/-8

n = 5/4
