Question

4n + 14 - 5n = -6 what is the value of n

Answer 1

Answer:

n = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

4n + 14 - 5n = -6

(4n - 5n) + 14 = -6      Combine like terms

-n + 14 = -6

    -14    -14                Subtract 14 from both sides

-n = -20

/-1    /-1                        Divide by -1

n = 20

Answer 2

Answer:

n = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

$4n+14-5n=-6$

So we have to simplify the equation.

4n + -5n = -n

So our equation looks like this now -> $-n+14=-6$.

So now to get -n by itself we get 14 and -6 by itself.

So we do -6 - 14 and we get -20.

So our equation looks like $-n=-20$.

So now we have to make n positive we do -n ÷ -1 which is n.

And since we divided -n by -1 we have to divide -20 by -1 which is 20.

So n is 20.
