Question:

Solution:

Consider the following equation:

To solve the above equation, split the equation up into two separate equations:

Equation 1:


-2n\text{ + 6 = 6}

Equation 2:


-2n\text{ + 6 =- 6}

now, solve each of the equation:

For equation 1 we have that:


-2n\text{ = 0}

then n = 0

and for equation 2, we have that:


-2n\text{ = -12}

then n = 6.

Then, the correct answer is :

n = 6 and n = 0.
