Question

How do I slove this eqaution, and whats the answer?
-3(n+6)+10=-9

Answer 1

`n = (1)/(3)`

Explanation:

1. Apply the distributed property, so it now looks like this: -3n + -18 + 10 = -9
2. Combine like terms: -3n + -8 = -9
3. Simplify: -3n - 8 = -9
4. Add 8 to each side, so it now looks like this: -3n = -1
5. Divide each side by -3 to cancel out the -3 next to n. It should now look like this: n = 1/3

I hope this helps!
