Answer:

there are no solutions

Explanation:

HERE ARE THE STEPS IN CASE U NEED EM :)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−8(n+5)=−44−8n

(−8)(n)+(−8)(5)=−44+−8n(Distribute)

−8n+−40=−44+−8n

−8n−40=−8n−44

Step 2: Add 8n to both sides.

−8n−40+8n=−8n−44+8n

−40=−44

Step 3: Add 40 to both sides.

−40+40=−44+40

0=−4
