Answer:

n= -3

Explanation:

First, your're going to subtract from both sides

6n + 21 - 2 1= -3 - 2n - 21

Then simplify

6n = -2n - 24

Then add 2n on both sides

6n + 2n = -2n -24 + 2n

Simplify again

8n = -24

Then divide both sides by 8

8n/8 = -24/8

Then simplify and this is your answer

n= -3
