Answer:

30

Explanation:

Simplifying

n + -13 = 17

Reorder the terms:

-13 + n = 17

Solving

-13 + n = 17

Solving for variable 'n'.

Move all terms containing n to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '13' to each side of the equation.

-13 + 13 + n = 17 + 13

Combine like terms: -13 + 13 = 0

0 + n = 17 + 13

n = 17 + 13

Combine like terms: 17 + 13 = 30

n = 30

Simplifying

n = 30
