Answer:

Simplifying

41n(7x) = 8

Remove parenthesis around (7x)

41n * 7x = 8

Reorder the terms for easier multiplication:

41 * 7n * x = 8

Multiply 41 * 7

287n * x = 8

Multiply n * x

287nx = 8

Solving

287nx = 8

Solving for variable 'n'.

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

Divide each side by '287x'.

n = 0.02787456446x-1

Simplifying

n = 0.02787456446x-1
