Question

How do I solve this?
I have the answer but what is the step-by-step explanation.

Answer 1

n=-12

Explanation:

Okay this isn't to hard first in the equation you must subtract 1 from both sides

So this: -7=1+2/3n

Becomes This: -8=2/3n

Then I divided by 2 on both sides to get:-4=1/3n

Then I multiplied by three to get -12=n

Let me know if you're still confused

Answer 2

-7 = 1 + 2/3n

Subtract 1 from both sides:

-8 = 2/3n

Multiply both sides by 3:

-24 = 2n

Divide both sides by 2:

N= -12
