-n-8+4n=28 is my problem and my answer is 12, but how  do I show the work?

lukecrayonz · Answer

-n-8+4n=28
Start by combining like terms, the n's, and end with -8+3n=28. Then, you want to isolate n. Move 8 by adding since it is a negative.  3n=36. Now, divide 36 by 3, which is 12, and that is your answer, n=12.
