To solve the equation 3n + 14 = -4, we need to get the terms with n on one side and the terms without n on the other. To do this in this particular equation, we need to subtract 14 from each side.

3n + 14 = -4

3n + 14 - 14 = -4 - 14

Simplifying gives us:

3n = -18

Now we want to have a single n, so we can divide both sides by the number in front of n.

3/3n = -18/3

n = -18/3

3n+14=-4

subtract 14 from both sides.

3n=-18

divide 3 to both sides

n=-6
