Answer:

n = -3

Explanation:

Original Equation:

11 (n-1) + 35 = 3n

Distributive Property:

11n + 24 = 3n

Subtract 24 from both sides:

11n + 24 - 24 = 3n - 24

Simplify:

11n = 3n - 24

Subtract 3n from both sides:

11n - 3n = 3n - 24 - 3n

Simplify:

8n = -24

Divide both sides by 8:


(8n)/(8) = ( - 24)/(8)

Simplify:

n = -3
