Question

How to solve it step by step -8+4(1+5n)=-6n-14

Answer 1

Answer:

n = -5/13

Step-by-step explanation:

-8+4(1+5n)=-6n-14  (from PEDMAS, expand parenthesis first)

-8+1(4) +5n(4)=-6n-14

-8+4 +20n=-6n-14

-4 + 20n = -6n -14  (add 6n to both sides)

-4 + 20n + 6n =  -14

-4 + 26n = -14  (add 4 to both sides)

26n = -14 + 4

26n = -10  (divide both sides by 26)

n = -10/26 = -5/13
