Answer:

n = 2

Explanation:

Simplifying

13n + -9 = 17

Reorder the terms:

-9 + 13n = 17

Solving

-9 + 13n = 17

Solving for variable 'n'.

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

Add '9' to each side of the equation.

-9 + 9 + 13n = 17 + 9

Combine like terms: -9 + 9 = 0

0 + 13n = 17 + 9

13n = 17 + 9

Combine like terms: 17 + 9 = 26

13n = 26

Divide each side by '13'.

n = 2

Simplifying

n = 2
