Answer:
Explanation:
So in the case of "n" being any given variable, (basically saying it could be replaced by x, or any other variable) the answer would be,
n = -6
Work:
n + 2 = -14 - n
Cancel out the negative n on the right side by adding one n to both sides.
n + n = 2n
2n + 2 = -14
Get rid of the 2 on the left side, isolating the variable (2n)
2 + 14 = -12
2n = -12 is the final equation, and the last step is to divide both sides by 2, again isolating the variable.
Final answer is,
n = -6.
