Answer:

n=10

Explanation:

Step 1: Distribute: -n( -8)=-2

-n+8=2

Step 2 : Subtract 8 from both sides

-n+8=-2

-n+8+-2

Step 3: Simplify

-n+-10

Step 4: Divide both sides of the equation using the same term

-n\=-1=-10\-1 (P.S: \ means divide :)

Step 5:Simplify

n=10

Hope this helps :)) Have a nice day!
