Step 1

8(2n−2)=4−4n  Equation

Step 2

8(2n−2)=4−4n  Remove parenthesis

16n-16=-4n+4

Step 3

20n−16=4 Add n to both sides

20n=20

Step 4

20n=20  Divide both sides by themselves

answer

n=1

Answer 2

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{n=1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the value of n that satisfies this equation, we can perform a series of algebraic steps on it to solve for n.

• $8(2n-2) = 4- 4n$
• Distribute in the 8 on the left side:
• $16n-16=4-4n$
• Add 4n to both sides
• $20n-16=4$
• Add 16 to both sides
• $20n = 20$
• Divide both sides by 20
• $n=1$

Therefore, n=1 is the value of n that satisfies this equation.

Hope this helped!
