We are given the following expression


-2n-(9-10n)

We are asked to simplify the above expression.

First of all, expand the parenthesis.


\Rightarrow-2n-9+10n

Now, combine the like terms together and simplify


\begin{gathered} \Rightarrow10n-2n-9 \\ \Rightarrow8n-9 \end{gathered}

Therefore, the simplified expression is


8n-9
