Simply subtract 2n from -6n getting -8n, leaving the equation to be -8n = 8. To solve for N, divide both sides by -8 leaving N to be equal to -1

Answer:

n=-1

Explanation:

Writing out the problem

8=-6n-2n

Simplifying "-6n-2n," which is -8n

8=-8n, or -8n=8

-8n=8

Divide both sides by -8

-8n/-8=8/-8

So, therefore, you get n=-1.

Hope this helps! Enjoy your day, and take care!
