8(n + 5) = (-56)

First distribute the 8 to both n and 5

8 x 5 = 40
8(n) = 8n

8n + 40 = -56
8n + 40 (-40) = -56 (-40)
8n = -96
8n/8 = -96/8
n = -12

-12 is your answer

Hope this helps

Can someone answer this Algebra question asap? thanks

Answer:

y = - 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that y varies directly with x then the equation relating them is

y = kx ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition y = 12 when x = - 3

k = $\frac{y}{x}$ = $\frac{12}{-3}$ = - 4

y = - 4x ← equation of variation

When x = 6, then

y = - 4 × 6 = - 24
