12n-8n-10=-18
COMBINE!! (:
12n-8n
= 4n
4n-10=-18
+10 +10
ADD 10 TO BOTH SIDES (after the equal sign.)
4n=-8
-- --
4 4
n=-2 which is your final answer! (:
I hope all is well, and you pass! (: Good luck, rockstar! (: If you have any more problems like these - let me know!

12n - 8n - 10 = -18

First combine like terms.

4n - 10 = -18

Add 10 to both sides.

4n = -8

Divide 4 off of both sides.

n = -2
