Question

-7(n - 2) + 2n = -5(n + 6)

Answer 1

Given the expression below

`-7(n-2)+2n=-5(n+6)`

To find n

Open the brackets

`\begin{gathered} -7(n-2)+2n=-5(n+6) \\ -7n+14+2n=-5n-30 \\ -7n+2n+14=-5n-30 \\ -5n+14=-5n-30 \end{gathered}`

Collect like terms

`\begin{gathered} -5n+14=-5n-30 \\ -5n-(-5n)=-30-14 \\ 0\\e-44 \end{gathered}`

Since, the sides are not equal,

Hence, there is no solution
