Answer:
n = 1
Explanation:
-12 = -6(-8n + 6) + 8(-4 + n)
multiply our right side:
-12 = 48n - 36 -32 + 8n
combine n terms on right side:
-12 = 56n - 36 -32
combine numbers on right side:
-12 = 56n - 68
add 68 to both sides:
-12 + 68 = 56n - 68 + 68
56 = 56n
divide both sides by 56:
56/56 = 56n/56
n = 1
check:
-12 = -6(-8(1) + 6) + 8(-4 + (1))
-12 = -6(-8 + 6) + 8(-3)
-12 = -6(-2) + 8(-3)
-12 = 12 - 24
-12 = -12
