∑ Hey, microhiezv ⊃

Answer:

n = -3/7 - Fraction Form

n = -0.43 - Decimal Form

Explanation:

Given:


5n - 2 ( 2 -n ) = -7

Solve:


5n-2\left(2-n\right)=-7

Distribute - 5n - 2 ( 2 - n ) : 7n - 4


7n-4=-7

Add 4 to both sides:


7n-4+4=-7+4


7n = -3

Divide both sides by 7


(7n)/(7)=(-3)/(7)


n=-(3)/(7)


n=-0.43
