What I do is inverse operations for the individual number which is the 5 so
55-5=50 then After that figure out what -5 needs to be multiplied with to get 50 and since a negative times a negative is a positive you want to use N = -10

Answer:

the answer would be n= -10

Explanation:

-5n+5 + 55

subtract 5 on both sides

-5n = 50

divide both sides by -5

n = -10
