The expression 7/9-2n+1/9 simplifies to -2n + 8/9 when the constants are combined. None of the provided answer options are correct, indicating a possible typo in the provided choices.

Step-by-step explanation:

To simplify the expression 7/9-2n+1/9, we combine the like terms (the constants) to get a simplified result. Here's how to do it step by step:

1. Combine the constants (7/9 and 1/9) together.
2. Add 7/9 and 1/9 to get 8/9.
3. The expression now looks like 8/9 - 2n.
4. To write it in a standard form, we rewrite the expression, putting the variable term first followed by the constant, resulting in -2n + 8/9.

None of the provided answer options match the correctly simplified expression, which implies there might be a typo in the question or answer choices. The correct answer should be -2n + 8/9.
